ABSTRACT
Association of autoimmune cochlear hearing loss with primary sclerosing cholangitis is reported in two patients. Endocochlear sensorineural hearing loss was associated with the presence of anti-cochlear antibodies in the serum directed against the walls of vessels in the stria vascularis. The hearing loss appeared at the same time or shortly after the diagnosis of cholangitis. This association, which has never been described, may reinforce the theory of the role of immunologic factors in the pathogenesis of primary sclerosing cholangitis, possibly linked to or initiated by vasculitis.
