Brucellosis is a disease of ubiquitous distribution. Direct CNS infection is quite rare.Cranial nerves commonly involved are optic,oculomotor, abducent, facial and vestibulocochlear nerves. Among these there seems to be a predilection for the vestibulocochlear nerve leading to sensorineural hearing loss. We report a patient presenting with acute onset of ataxia and sensorineural hearing loss shown on audiometry.Keywords: Brucellosis, Hearing loss, Neural involvementTurkiye Klinikleri J Med Sci 2001, 21:515-516
