Acute reversible hearing loss in scrub typhus.

S K Mahajan1, D Bakshi.   

Abstract

Scrub typhus usually presents as pyrexia with or without multiple organ involvement. Acute hearing loss occurs in about one third of cases and is a useful clue toward the diagnosis. We present two cases of scrub typhus with acute reversible hearing loss from an endemic area. The diagnosis was confirmed by nested PCR.
