A 47-year-old woman presented with the complaint of sudden hearing loss associated with vertigo. Serological testing was positive for IgM and negative for IgG COVID-19 antibodies, with no other associated factors. Magnetic resonance imaging of the brain showed bilateral intralabyrinthine hemorrhage.

Background: Vestibular migraine (VM), the most frequent episodic vertigo, is difficult to distinguish from Ménière's disease (MD) because reliable biomarkers are missing. The classical proof of MD was an endolymphatic hydrops (EH). However, a few intravenous gadolinium-enhanced MRI studies of the inner ear (MRI) also revealed an EH in VM.

: Simultaneous removal and cochlear implantation (CI) have been reported in intralabyrinthine and intracochlear schwannoma. A wide range of postoperative hearing outcomes have been reported after CI in these cases. This study evaluated the outcomes of performing a simultaneous resection of Schwannoma in cochlea and cochlear implantation (CI), aiming to assess the effectiveness of this combined surgical approach for hearing rehabilitation with CI.

Intracochlear schwannomas (ICS) are very rare benign tumours of the inner ear. We present histopathological proof of the extremely rare bilateral occurrence of intracochlear schwannomas with negative blood genetic testing for neurofibromatosis type 2 (NF2). Bilateral schwannomas are typically associated with the condition NF2 and this case is presumed to have either mosaicism for NF2 or sporadic development of bilateral tumours.

Introduction: Intra-cochlear hemorrhage is a rare cause of sudden sensorineural hearing loss (SSNHL) which may be accompanied by diverse labyrinthine symptoms. In these cases, we expect magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) to demonstrate a high signal intensity in the labyrinth on unenhanced T1-weighted images as well as in fluid-attenuated inversion recovery (FLAIR) images.
Aims: To describe an experience with a case of intra-cochlear hemorrhage in a patient treated with anticoagulation, causing SSNHL and vertigo.
