I presume it was treated with concurrent chemoradiation. The cisplatin drug which is used for the chemotherapy is usually responsible for the hearing loss, which is usually temporary, but may be permanent in a few patients. Better to see your medical oncologist and a good ENT surgeon for the same. Feel free to contact me directly if you want to discuss this further.
