Carbon monoxide poisoning is one of the rare causes of hearing loss which may cause reversible or irreversible, unilateral or bilateral hearing loss after acute or chronic exposure. In this report, we present a case of bilateral sensorineural hearing loss in a secondary smelting workshop worker after an acute exposure to carbon monoxide. This complication was diagnosed by pure-tone audiometry and confirmed by transient evoked otoacoustic emissions. Hearing loss has not improved after 3 months of followup.
一氧化碳中毒是听力损失的罕见原因之一,急性或慢性接触一氧化碳后可能导致可逆或不可逆的单侧或双侧听力损失。在本报告中,我们介绍了一名二次冶炼车间工人在急性接触一氧化碳后出现双侧感音神经性听力损失的病例。这种并发症通过纯音听力测定法诊断,并通过瞬态诱发耳声发射得到证实。经过3个月的随访,听力损失并未改善。
