Özet
Susac's syndrome is characterized by the clinical triad of encephalopathy, branch retinal artery occlusions and sensorineural hearing loss. We here report a case of 46 year old woman with a sudden diminution in visual acuity at the left eye, headache and decreased hearing at the right ear with mild confusion considered as Susac's syndrome with complete triad. Although it's a relatively rare entity, it should be kept in mind in differential diagnosis of the neurological disorders, especially in women in 20- to 40-year of age presenting with acute hearing loss.
