| Abstract: | Summary We describe a 64-year-old patient with multiple myeloma who developed a sudden sensorineural hearing loss shortly after receiving chemotherapy with vincristine. Ototoxicity is not a known side effect of this drug. It would be of interest to perform repeated audiograms on patients receiving vincristine, in order to appreciate the actual ototoxicity of this drug. |
