Abstract
Metastases to the temporal bone are a recognized, if rare, cause of ot ological symptoms including sudden sensorineural hearing loss. Carcino ma of the prostate is a common cancer which frequently metastasizes to bone but is only rarely reported in the temporal bone. We report a ca se of sudden sensorineural hearing loss due to metastatic prostatic ca rcinoma in the temporal bone.
