Normal anatomy of the inner ear.

چکیده
The three parts of the inner ear have been reviewed: the membranous (endolymph containing) labyrinth surrounded by the osseous (perilymph containing) labyrinth, and the otic capsule of bone that encases the osseous labyrinth. This is a brief survey of the normal anatomy, but one must always remember that the hallmark of the temporal bone is variation.

Cochlear nerve (CN) aplasia refers to the absence of a visible CN on oblique sagittal magnetic resonance images of the lateral aspect of the inner auditory canal (IAC). Magnetic resonance (MR) is the preferred technique in patients with sensorineural hearing loss and/or vertigo; however, computed tomography (CT) is used to evaluate the IAC or facial nerve canal. Three types of aplasia or hypopl...
