Introduction: Chronic subjective tinnitus, especially when no clear organic cause is identified, frequently proves refractory to pharmacological therapies, resulting in persistent distress and impaired quality of life [1]. Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS) has emerged as a novel, non-invasive neuromodulation technique with the potential to modulate cortical excitability and alleviate tinnitus perception [2, 3]. Given the rising prevalence of tinnitus and the limitations of existing treatments, exploring TMS as an alternative therapeutic modality is timely and necessary.
