Description
Nóra Kecskeméti and co-authors follow five patients with a rare immune disorder in this 2025 paper. Cogan's syndrome attacks the eyes and inner ears, and its timing varies a lot between patients. The team tracked how the illness was diagnosed, treated, and followed over many years.
All five patients lost hearing in both ears, often suddenly, and all lost balance function on both sides. Eye problems also shifted over time. Steroids were the first treatment, with stronger immune drugs and newer biologic drugs used when needed. Eye symptoms were controlled in every patient. Four patients got cochlear implants and kept stable speech understanding long-term. The authors stress early treatment and early hearing rehabilitation for such cases.
