Abstract

Sera of 164 patients with classical Meniere's disease were screened for autoantibodies, immune complexes and HLA status. Increased thyroid microsomal antibodies were significant in those patients in the 40- to 60-year age range. Raised IgM complexes and C1q component of complement were significant in all age groups. Low levels of IgA complexes were a consistent finding and were significantly lower in the HLA Cw7 group. Patients with migraine had no increased incidence of immune disturbances.
