Several autoimmune disorders are associated with inner ear involvement. The resulting sensorineural loss of hearing may be improved by treatment with immunosuppressive agents. We describe a patient with oral ulcerations, systemic vasculitis, iridocyclitis and bilateral sudden deafness. After a course of systemic steroid treatment the hearing improved. Atypical Cogan's syndrome is the most likely diagnosis.
