Retrocochlear Diseases

Pathological processes involving the VESTIBULOCOCHLEAR NERVE; BRAINSTEM; or CENTRAL NERVOUS SYSTEM. When hearing loss is due to retrocochlear pathology, it is called retrocochlear hearing loss.

Drugs and Biologics

Drugs and Important Biological Agents (IBA) related to Retrocochlear Diseases:

1.	Xylenes (Xylene)IBA 04/01/2009 - "To our knowledge, this is the first report of retrocochlear hearing loss following xylene exposure. "
2.	T-Cell Antigen Receptors (T-Cell Receptor)IBA 11/01/1998 - "We demonstrated that mice with experimental allergic encephalomyelitis developed retrocochlear hearing loss, and that the lesion of the auditory pathway might be related to T cell receptor Vbeta8-expressing T cells. " 11/01/1998 - "Successful prevention of retrocochlear hearing loss in murine experimental allergic encephalomyelitis with T cell receptor Vbeta8-specific antibody." 11/01/1998 - "The development of T cell receptor-specific antibody therapy might help treat retrocochlear hearing loss in multiple sclerosis."

Therapies and Procedures

1.	Cochlear Implantation 01/01/2020 - "Historically, the presence of retrocochlear disease has been considered to be a contra-indication to cochlear implantation (CI). " 07/01/2016 - "Cochlear implantation (CI) was traditionally not used in these patients due to concern that retrocochlear disease would render the implant ineffective. "
2.	Therapeutics 11/01/1998 - "The development of T cell receptor-specific antibody therapy might help treat retrocochlear hearing loss in multiple sclerosis."
3.	Continuous Ambulatory Peritoneal Dialysis (CAPD) 08/01/2022 - "Supra-threshold disorders in the form of auditory neuropathy (AN)/auditory dys-synchrony (AD) or central auditory processing disorders (CAPD), a special type of retrocochlear hearing loss; and also children with mild permanent hearing loss (PHL), may be missed on current hearing protocols.
