Three pediatric cases of Cogan\u2019s syndrome (ages 5, 13, and 18 years) are reported with long-term follow-up and complete and regular cochleovestibular functional evaluation and ophthalmologic and neurologic examinations. One case was a typical form (characterized by an interstitial keratitis and cochleovestibular impairment), whereas the other 2 cases were atypical forms with uveitis and polyarthritis. In all 3 cases, the first clinical sign was nonspecific eye redness misdiagnosed as a banal conjunctivitis, initially or secondarily associated with bilateral endocochlear sensorineural hearing loss and complete bilateral peripheral vestibular deficit. During the acute phase, early steroid treatment (prednisone, 1 mg\/kg\/day) was effective in treating the ocular lesions (3 of 3 cases) and improving hearing (2 of 3 cases) but less effective for the vestibular loss (2 of 3 cases). Adverse effects and dependence on the steroid occurred in 2 cases, and immunosuppressive drugs were necessary to avoid recurrences in 1 case. Over the long-term, the disease was controlled in 2 cases but continued to progress in the other. Cogan\u2019s syndrome in childhood should be suspected in cases of conjunctivitis associated with inner-ear symptoms; a prompt steroid treatment can avoid progressive impairment of multiple sensorineural functions (vision, balance, hearing). Long-term management involves limiting disease recurrences by adaptive therapies, screening for complications (aortitis in particular), and planning rehabilitation for the sensorial deficits.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1542\/peds.109.2.e38","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2004,8,13]],"date-time":"2004-08-13T20:17:55Z","timestamp":1092428275000},"page":"e38-e38","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":43,"title":["Cochleovestibular Impairment in Pediatric Cogan\u2019s Syndrome"],"prefix":"10.1542","volume":"109","author":[{"given":"Issa C.","family":"Ndiaye","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"From the Otorhinolaryngology Department, Robert Debre\u0301 Pediatric Hospital, Paris, France"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Simon J.","family":"Rassi","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"From the Otorhinolaryngology Department, Robert Debre\u0301 Pediatric Hospital, Paris, France"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Sylvette R.","family":"Wiener-Vacher","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"From the Otorhinolaryngology Department, Robert Debre\u0301 Pediatric Hospital, Paris, France"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"417","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2002,2,1]]},"reference":[{"key":"2021121006171619700_R1","unstructured":"Morgan RF, Baumgartner CJ.
