Abstract

Eight patients who had sensorineural hearing loss (SNHL) associated with cryptococcal meningitis were studied. After a minimum 3-year follow-up, one had died. Among the seven survivors, three had improved, two stabilized, and two progressed. Predictive factors included visual disturbance, meningeal enhancements on MRI, and a CSF cryptococcal antigen titer of >1:1,024. SNHL accounted for 30.8% (8/26) of cryptococcal meningitis patients in our study.
