Asimetik İşitme Kaybı: Geniş Vestibüler Kanal Sendromlu Bir Olgu

Geniş vestibüler kanal sendromu GVKS , kemik labirentte vestibüler akuaduktusun normalden geniş olmasına bağlı olarak ortaya çıkar. Genellikle dalgalanma ve progresyon gösteren sensörinöral işitme kaybına yol açan bir hastalıktır. Bu çalışmada, her iki kulağında GVKS olan bir hastanın tanılanma süreci ve GVKS şüphesinin oluşmasına neden olan klinik bulgular tartışılmıştır.
