Rapid progressive sensorineural hearing damage as the early sign of a hematological illness is
often found in patients with Chronic Myeloid Leukemia. A 100-year- old man presented to our outpatient
department with 2 hours history of bilateral sudden sensorineural hearing loss (SSNHL). After the
hematological, bone marrow and radiological workup, the patient was found to have chronic myelogenous
leukemia.
The patient was identifi ed as having unexplained SSNHL and was admitted for treatment, but his
hematological investigations indicated that he had an undiagnosed form of leukemia. The possible
pathogenesis of developing SSNHL from CML is discussed here within the report with highlights of
differential diagnosis of SSNHL.
