Acute vascular lesion involving the arteries supplying the cochlea

Sensorineural hearing loss - Acute vascular lesion involving the arteries supplying the cochlea Factor

This means any local process causing a sudden decline in the supply of blood to the cochlea and includes ischaemia, emboli and haemorrhage affecting these arteries.

If a veteran or member had an acute vascular lesion involving the arteries supplying the cochlea he or she would have experienced a sudden decrease in hearing and would probably have sought medical attention at that time.
