pubmed:abstractText |
In this study we investigated asymptomatic mumps as a possible cause of sudden deafness. We studied 131 sudden deafness patients by measuring their serum mumps antibody values. Positive IgM antibody results, which strongly suggest recent mumps infection, were revealed in 9 of the 130 patients tested (6.9%). Asymptomatic mumps infections are apparently closely related to sudden deafness. Further studies will provide more definite diagnoses of mumps deafness and might be applicable to the treatment of such hearing loss.
