Abstract :
Hearing loss is uncommon following spinal anesthesia. Spinal anesthesia was performed for an elective hydrocelectomy on a 43 year old patient. The duration of the anesthesia and surgery were uneventful. Hearing loss at a low frequency rate occurred at the postoperative sixth hour. In this report, we present a case of hearing loss and the treatment period following spinal anesthesia.
