Abstract
The vestibular aquaeduct was evaluated blindly in tomograms from patients with Meniere's disease or chronic otitis and from patients without ear disorders. The descending part of the aquaeduct was clearly visible in 95% of the patients without ear disease. In the two other groups, it was visible only in about 50%. It is suggested that a narrow or invisible vestibular aquaeduct is an unspecific radiological sign in a variety of ear diseases.Entities:
