ABSTRACT
INTRODUCTION:
Although vestibular migraine is well defined, the effects of migraine on the auditory system have not been clearly identified yet. The aim of this study was to determine the effect of migraine on the auditory system.METHODS:
Migraine patients without hearing loss were included in the study. Group 1 consisted of patients with migraine pain, group 2 consisted of patients with migraine in the interictal period, and group 3 consisted of healthy volunteers with similar demographic characteristics to groups 1 and 2. Random gap detection test was applied to all 3 groups. Additionally, group 2 and group 3 patients were evaluated with the auditory cortical potentials and the mismatch negativity test.RESULTS:
There was a statistically significant difference between the 3 groups in the random gap detection test. There was no statistically significant difference in auditory cortical potentials between group 2 and group 3; however, a statistically significant difference was found between the groups in terms of mismatch negativity test latency.CONCLUSION:
An auditory pathway may be affected in migraine patients, although hearing tests are normal. This interaction continues between attacks, being more evident during the pain period. Therefore, disorders of hearing or speech perception in migraine patients should be evaluated by further audiological tests.Palavras-chave
