Abstract
Hypofibrinolysis was found in five patients with Menière's disease that all started with sudden hearing loss. A connection between hypofibrinolysis and Menière's disease is proposed. The possibility that the symptoms of Menière's disease and endolymphatic hydrops is due to an inner ear vascular disorder, is discussed. It is concluded that, if the hypothesis is correct, it can lead to a causal therapy in some cases of Menière's disease.Entities:
