Abstract

Sudden hearing loss was first described in 1860 by Bing, which he related to mumps. In 1944 De Kleyn made his contributions, as did McCabe in 1979, and many since then have tried to define and correctly manage this entity, but it was not until 1986 that Wilson described it as a sudden onset disorder where there is hearing loss, unilateral or bilateral sensorineural type greater than 30 dB that affects at least three consecutive audiometric frequencies and develops in a period less than or equal to 72 hours.
