Objectives: Ménière disease is a clinical syndrome characterized by the four major symptoms of episodic vertigo, sensorineural hearing loss, tinnitus, and aural fullness. Sensorineural hearing loss, especially low frequency, is the characteristic type of audiogram in Ménière's disease. However, it is difficult to distinguish idiopathic sudden sensorineural hearing loss (ISSNHL) with vertigo from the first attack of Ménière disease. The purpose of this study was to investigate the incidence of progression into Ménière Disease from low frequency ISSNHL. Methods: Two hundred eighty-three patients were included in this study. We classified the patients with ISSNHL according to the hearing loss in audiogram and analyzed how many of them actually progressed to Ménière disease based on diagnosis criteria. Results: Among the 240 patients, 37.1% (89 patients) were confirmed low frequency ISSNHL and 14.6% (13 patients) of them were diagnosed with Meniere disease. Conclusions: This study showed that the progression from low frequency ISSNHL to Ménière disease was higher than other frequency ISSNHL, as in other studies.

Slight improvement More than 15 db gain, final hearing poorer than 45 db IV. No improvement Less than 15 db gain, final hearing poorer than 75 db 하게보고가되고있지만실제유병률은훨씬더높을것이라는견해가많다 [10]. 이는자연적인회복률이높아증상이발생하여도실제로병원을찾지않는환자들이많을것이라고생각되기때문이며자연회복률은 45% 65% 정도로보고되고있다 [11]. 메니에르병초기에발생하는증상들의비율을보면난청은 22%, 어지럼이 37%, 두가지모두나타나는경우가 41% 정도로보고되고있어단순히난청만있을경우에는돌발성난청과감별이어렵다고알려져있다 [12]. 이연구에서는메니에르병의주증상인난청이단일증상으로발생한경우돌발성난청으로진단될수있을것이며, 그후경과관찰중에어지럼이나이명, 이충감과같은증상이동반되면서메니에르병으로진행할수있을것이라생각했고실제그빈도를확인하였다. 이연구에서저음역감각신경성난청환자들에서 14.6% 에서메니에르병으로진행됨을확인하였으며다른음역의난청환자들보다메니에르병으로진행될가능성이높음을알수있었다. 청력회복의경우에도메니에르병으로진단된군에서 71.4%, 그렇지않은군에서 43.4% 로나타나메니에르병의증상중하나인감각신경성난청의경우일시적으로나타나는경우가많아청력의회복률이높음을마찬가지로함께설명할수있다. 메니에르병의성별에따른유병률차이는일반적으로여성에서좀더높다고알려져있다. 그차이가크지는않으나여성대남성의비가 1.3:1 4.3:1로다양하게보고되어있으며이연구에서도남녀유병률의차이가 1.8:1로여성군에서좀더높게나타났으나통계적으로유의미하지는않았다 [6]. 이런성별에서의차이는메니에르병이성호르몬에따른영향도있을것이라보는견해도있으며성별에따라사회적활동이다름에서나타나는차이라보는견해도있다 [13]. 메니에르병의발병기전은내림프수종과관련이있을것이라생각되며이로인한내이의막성미로내의내림프압력의증가로인해감각신경성난청이나어지럼, 이명및이충만감과같은증 99

Fig. 2. In patients with progression to Meniere disease, 71.4% had hearing recovery. On the other hand, the recovery rate was 43.4% in not progression patients (p=0.04). 상이발생한다고알려져있다 [14]. 때문에내림프압력을줄이는방법으로저염식이를통한염분섭취의감소나이뇨제복용이대표적으로알려져있으며여러연구를통해실제증상완화및악화방지에효과가있음이입증되었다 [15]. 이연구는후향적분석을통해저음역감각신경성난청이다른음역대의감각신경성난청과비교하여메니에르병으로진행할가능성이높다는사실을확인하였다. 그러나환자가처음내원하여저음역감각신경성난청이확인되었 결론메니에르병환자가실제로돌발성난청으로잘못진단되었을가능성을고려해볼때, 청력의개선과관계없이지속적인경과관찰이필요하다. 특히나저음역난청환자들에게는메니에르병으로의진행가능성및치료와경과에대해추가적으로설명하도록하고특히나어지럼이나다른증상이동반될시재내원이필요함을설명하는것이바람직하다. 중심단어 : 돌발성난청, 감각신경성난청, 메니에르병, 발병률 100
