Heparin Therapy for Sudden Sensorineural Hearing Loss

Arch Otolaryngol. 1979;105(6):351-352.
Abstract
Twenty-three patients with sudden unilateral sensorineural hearing loss were treated with a course of intravenous heparin sodium within one week of the onset of the hearing loss. Complete or good recovery developed in a total of 69.6% of these patients, but this is very similar to previously reported criteria of 66% spontaneous recovery. There was one complication in the series, ie, priapism.
