Abstract
INTRODUÇÃO: O Lúpus Eritematoso Sistêmico (LES) é uma doença sistêmica do tecido conectivo, de etiologia desconhecida, provavelmente multifatorial. Acomete principalmente o sexo feminino podendo afetar múltiplos órgãos, dentre eles o sistema auditivo. A orelha interna pode ser lesada por diversos mecanismos auto-imunes, sendo a manifestação mais freqüente a disacusia sensorioneural flutuante, geralmente bilateral, rapidamente progressiva e com boa responsividade a imunossupressores. OBJETIVO: O objetivo deste trabalho é relatar três casos de disacusia de etiologia auto-imune, enfocando formas de acometimento e manifestações clínicas, bem como correlacionando o efeito ototóxico da cloroquina - droga empregada no controle do LES - com a perda auditiva. CONCLUSÃO: As perdas auditivas sensorioneurais súbitas, rapidamente progressivas ou flutuantes, podem ocorrer em pacientes com doença auto-imune e devem ser sempre lembradas nos casos de disacusia sem causa aparente.
INTRODUCTION: The Systemic Lupus Erythematosus (SLE) is a systemic disease of the connective tissue, with unknown etiology, probably associated to multiple events. It is a multiple organs disease that affects mainly women. The inner ear can be damaged by several immunopathogenic mechanisms, and the most common symptom is a progressive sensorineural hearing loss, generally bilateral, with good response to immunossupression. AIM: The purpose of this article is to report three cases of women suffering from SLE and hearing loss and to establish a link between the autoimmune and the vascular mechanisms of the disease, also focusing attention on the ototoxicity due to chloroquine applied during the treatment of SLE. CONCLUSION: Sudden or fluctuant sensorineural hearing loss may affect patients with autoimmune disease, so it must always be taken into account when dealing with patients suffering from hearing loss without any apparent cause.
