Abstract
This review summarises the factors that contribute to the development of sensorineural hearing loss (SNHL) of vascular and viral origin. It summarises findings from clinical audiological and virological studies of patients presenting with these forms of hearing impairment. The main principles underlying the onset, progression and prognosis of SNHL are outlined. The methods used for comprehensive auditory evaluations are assessed. Certain issues in the diagnosis and rehabilitation of SNHL of vascular and viral aetiology are identified, which warrant further investigation in this area.
