ABSTRACT
Rare cases of contralateral hearing loss following surgery have been reported, usually associated with acoustic neuroma resection. We present one case of contralateral sensorineural hearing loss following middle ear reconstruction for congenital malformation, and one case following resection of a glomus jugulare tumor. Review of the literature confirms the rarity of contralateral hearing loss following ear surgery, and an autoimmune mechanisms seems most likely. Aggressive evaluation and treatment are indicated
