Autoimmune inner ear disease secondary to Hashimoto’s thyroiditis: a case report

Abstract: Autoimmune inner ear disease is an important yet incompletely understood cause of hearing loss which can present to different medical disciplines. Its diagnostic significance is indicated by the fact that it is a reversible medical condition if recognized early with an excellent response to immunosuppressive agents. Therefore, it should be considered in the differential diagnosis of hearing disorders especially in the context of another autoimmune disease such as Hashimoto’s thyroiditis.

“…However, a later study could not replicate this result ( Papi et al., 2010 ). Therefore, it is likely that thyroid autoimmunity is a risk factor for developing other disorders of the inner ear, such as autoimmune hearing loss or Meniere’s disease ( Fayyaz and Upreti, 2018 ; Sari et al., 2015 ).…”

“…Yuan et.al, 2019 reported highest prevalence of vitiligo in subclinical hypothyroidism, among 6 types of thyroid disorders [195]. Subclinical hypothyroidism is most often caused by autoimmune (Hashimoto) thyroiditis [196], who are at higher risk of developing audiological abnormalities as compared to the healthy individuals [197]. Hypothyroidism may also cause alveolar hypoventilation, decreased lung volumes, upper airway obstruction, depression in respiratory stimulus, and respiratory failure [198].…”
