Abstract

A case of acute severe hearing loss caused by the ingestion of sodium bromate in an 18-year-old female was reported.<br>Hearing loss was associated with the profound renal failure which developed to anuria.<br>There were not disturbances of the vestibular function in this patient.<br>Electrocochleogram revealed the acute total subtractive loss type of sensory units.<br>It seems that simultaneous occurrences of both severe subtractive hearing loss and acute renal damage in sodium bromate poisoning may be based on similarities in the pathophysio-logical changes between the stria vascularis of the cochlea and, the proximal renal tubules of the glomerulus.
