Objective: To investigate the effecacy of cochlear implantation (CI) improving hearing of Lermoyez's syndrome, we retrospectively analyzed a case of Lermoyez's syndrome whose left ear was extremely severe sensorineural deafness and right ear was severe sensorineural deafness.
Method: The patient had completed preoperative audiological examination , vestibular function and imaging examination, then was carried out bilateral endolymphatic sac decompression and left side CI. Follow up after the surgery.

Lermoyez syndrome (LS) has been regarded as a variant of Ménière's disease (MD), but so far there have been very few cases of LS reported in the literature, so such a conclusion is debatable. Specifying the pattern of auditory and vestibular changes at attack using objective quantitative measures is important for understanding the mechanism responsible for MD and LS. Here we report the first objective measures of dynamic otolith function and dynamic semicircular canal function in an LS patient at the time of the attack as well as at quiescence, documenting the fluctuation in otolith and semicircular canal function in the patient.

We here present a 32-month follow-up of a case of Lermoyez syndrome combined with Meniere's disease. The patient was a 49-year-old male, with a stabilized severe hearing loss in the left ear for about 15 years after Meniere's disease. He started to show typical symptoms of Lermoyez syndrome in the right ear about 32 months ago.

Menière's disease is recognized as the idiopathic form of recurrent inner ear disease with the trias of hearing loss, tinnitus and vertigo with aural fullness and Menière's syndrome as the non-idiopathic form. Subentities with unknown pathogenesis are Lermoyez' s syndrome and Tumarkin crises. A common pathogenetic factor is the disturbance of endolymphatic and perilymphatic osmotic and hydrostatic pressure due to defined etiologies or to idiopathic attacks.
