Hearing loss in a glue sniffer.

D M Williams1.   

Abstract

A case is presented of a 27-year-old glue sniffing woman with sensorineural hearing loss, optic atrophy and global brain damage. This form of addiction has not received much attention as a cause of otologic catastrophes, and should be borne in mind where similar cases come to the otolaryngologist.
