Abstract:
Background : Congenital heart disease (CHD) is a dangerous disease, about 50% of deaths will occur in the first month of life. In developed countries almost all types of congenital heart disease have been detected in infancy even at less than 1 month of age, whereas in developing countries many are only detected after the child is older, so in some severe CHD types may have died before being detected. Rubella infection in pregnancy or congenital rubella syndrome (CRS) can cause miscarriage, fetal death, or congenital abnormalities after birth. CRS is characterized by sensorineural hearing loss (SNHL), congenital cataracts or glaucoma, congenital heart disease, and developmental delays.
Purpose : This case report was submitted in order to find out how to properly treat patients with hearing loss with sensory deafness and congenital heart disease.
Case : Reported a 3-year-old 6-month-old boy diagnosed with very severe degree sensorineural deafness and congenital heart disease based on anamnesis, physical examination and examination of OAE, BERA and ASSR for examination of auditory function) and echocardiography examination for examination of cardiac function.
Conclusion : From the history, physical examination and examination of OAE, BERA, ASSR showed patients with very severe sensorineural hearing loss of the left and right ear and congenital heart disease, planned use of hearing aids or cochlear implantation and cardiac consul for CHD treatment.
