“…Noda et al reported two cases who received cochlear implants for bilateral mumps deafness, with a good result obtained in one case. The other case, who might have had central nervous damage involvement, did not achieve good results for speech perception [16]. Lindsay et al [17] reported degeneration of the organ of Corti and the stria vascularis in a histopathological study of mumps deafness.…”

“…One patient had improved hearing, but the other had no change in speech perception. It is speculated that there may be lesions in the central nervous system [ 243 ]. For bilateral hearing loss caused by the mumps virus, a cochlear implant may improve hearing, but a careful evaluation of central involvement is required.…”

“…Mumps virus was also isolated from the inner ear after sudden deafness, and post-labyrinthine disorder is reported with mumps deafness. The hearing loss is usually transient but can be permanent [28][29][30][31]. There is no specific antiviral therapy for mumps, so vaccination against mumps is essential to prevent mumps-associated hearing loss [23].…”
