Overview

Syndrome of superior semicircular canal dehiscence represents relatively rare disease of the inner ear. It presents with various combinations of often bizarre vestibular and hearing symptoms. The pathological and pathophysiological basis of this clinical syndrome is defect of otic capsule in the middle fossa. Dehiscence represents the third mobile window of the otic capsule. The purpose of the case report is to present characteristic neurootologic and audiologic symptomatology of the syndrome, key steps in its diagnosis and its surgical management.

The authors declare they have no potential conflicts of interest concerning drugs, products, or services used in the study.

The Editorial Board declares that the manu script met the ICMJE “uniform requirements” for biomedical papers.

Keywords:

superior semicircular canal dehiscence – Tullio phenomenon – vestibular evoked myogenic potentials – third window
