- Prevalence of Cochlear-Facial and Other Non-Superior Semicircular Canal Third Window Dehiscence on High-Resolution Temporal Bone CT
This study of 500 patients found the prevalence of non-SSCD on high-resolution CT in asymptomatic individuals to be 1.6% for CFD and 8.0% for JVD as compared with the rate in patients with audiologic or vestibular symptoms (2.9% for CFD and 7.8% for JVD). There was no statistically significant difference in the rates of radiologic findings between patients with reported symptoms suggestive of a possible third window syndrome and those without auditory or vestibular symptoms.
