There are currently several hypotheses that hearing loss may be associated with severe hypercholesterolemia, but the available literature remains ambiguous. With new estimates of the prevalence of familial hypercholesterolemia, the disease is much more common in the general population than previously thought. Although there are some exceptions, the detection rate of FH remains low, as it is still below 1 % in the most countries. At the same time, today we are witnessing the advent of a new generation of hypolipidemic drugs that bring a dramatic drop in total and LDL cholesterol and better prospects for the future, not only for patients with congenital disorders of lipid metabolism. The need for these patients to be effectively sought and treated correctly is all the greater. Limited data on the association of hypercholesterolemia with hearing impairment suggest further research in this area.
