Diagnosis of sudden deafness is easy, but we observed two cases of psychogenic hearing loss while testing for and treating sudden deafness. Case 1: A 23-year-old woman was deaf in the left ear, but during the period of treatment, the deafness transferred from the right ear to the left one. Case 2: A 17-year-old woman was deaf in both ears. We found that we had made a mistaken diagnosis during our medical treatment of her, so we gave her psychogenic treatment. This form of treatment had no effect, but the deafness in both ears improved after the traffic accident. © 1981, The Showa University Society. All rights reserved.
