A 51-year-old male with moyamoya disease had experienced a left putaminal hemorrhage 14 years previously, in 1983. Left encephalo-duro-arterio-synangiosis (EDAS) was performed in that year. The left putaminal hemorrhage reoccurred in 1990 and in 1994. Left superficial temporal artery-middle cerebral artery anastomosis (STA-MCA anastomosis) was performed. He was symptom free after the surgery. However, he suddenly suffered from deafness in 1997, when computerized tomography (CT) revealed the right temporal subcortical hemorrhage. Deafness continued for three days. It gradually improved and completely disappeared in two months. The damage to the bilateral auditory radiation was suggested as the cause of deafness in this patient. Cortical deafness is a rare symptom that is most often associated with cerebral infarction. This may be the first report of moyamoya disease which developed cortical deafness.
