متن کاملCorrelation of vestibular aqueduct size with air-bone gap in enlarged vestibular aqueduct syndrome.
OBJECTIVES/HYPOTHESIS Patients with enlarged vestibular aqueduct (EVA) often demonstrate an air-bone gap (ABG) at low frequencies on audiometric testing. The mechanism for this has not been well elucidated. We investigated vestibular aqueduct (VA) size and ABG in patients with EVA, and assessed the relationship between VA diameter and ABG. STUDY DESIGN Retrospective review. METHODS We asses...
متن کاملMisdiagnosis of otosclerosis in a patient with enlarged vestibular aqueduct syndrome: a case report

متن کاملBilateral large vestibular aqueduct syndrome in an 11-year-old boy. Radiological and clinical findings.
Clinical observations supplemented with imaging examination show that the large vestibular aqueduct syndrome (LVAS) is a rare developmental anomaly of the inner ear, which leads to hearing loss. The authors present a case history, results of imaging examination (high resolution CT, MRI), results of hearing acuity examinations (tonal audiometry, otoacoustic emissions, brainstem auditory evoked p...
