A 57-year-old male with bilateral Meniere's disease developed sudden sensorineural hearing loss of the right ear with vertigo. Hearing and vertigo responded temporarily steroid therapy. However, after the third episode of hearing loss, hearing of the right ear depended on the dose of steroid: an increase in the dose improved hearing and a decrease worsened it.
The contribution of autoimmunity to the etiology of Meniere's disease is discussed.
