AbstractObjective:The aim of this study was to describe the successful operative management of a patient with superior semicircular canal dehiscence syndrome, using the transmastoid approach under local anaesthesia.Methods:The transmastoid approach was used to plug the superior semicircular canal.Results:Post-operatively, the patient experienced significant improvement in his symptoms of sound- and pressure-induced dysequilibrium, autophony and imbalance.Conclusion:Successful operative management of superior semicircular canal dehiscence can be achieved via the transmastoid approach under local anaesthesia.

OBJECTIVEThe authors compared postoperative symptoms between patients with sealed and those with plugged semicircular canal dehiscence repairs.METHODSIn total, 136 ears from 118 patients who underwent surgical repair for semicircular canal dehiscence were identified via chart review. Data from postoperative MRI scans showing preservation or loss of semicircular canal fluid signal and postoperative reports of autophony, amplification, aural fullness, tinnitus, hyperacusis, hearing loss, vertigo, dizziness, disequilibrium, oscillopsia, and headache were amalgamated and analyzed.RESULTSPatients with preservation of fluid signal were far less likely to have dizziness postoperatively (p = 0.007, OR 0.158, 95% CI 0.041–0.611). In addition, these patients were more likely to have tinnitus postoperatively (p = 0.028, OR 3.515, 95% CI 1.145–10.787).CONCLUSIONSThe authors found that superior semicircular canal dehiscence patients who undergo sealing without plugging have improved balance outcomes but show more tinnitus postoperatively than patients who undergo plugging.
