OBJECTIVE: To determine the use of multi-detector computed tomography (MDCT) in the diagnostic interpretation of superior semicircular canal dehiscence (SSCD) or thinning and its association with ear pathologies and to find whether it is an acquired condition and its association with increase in age.
MATERIALS AND METHODS: study was performed in a tertiary care institute present in a village, following approval of the institutional ethical committee. Retrospective review of temporal bone CT examinations performed between September 2016 and March 2017 was done. 1 mm interval axial images with sagittal and coronal reformatted images were reviewed for the presence of canal dehiscence and thinning by investigators. We characterised the Superior semicircular canal status as normal, frank dehiscence or thinning. Frank dehiscence was further classified anatomically as anterior limb, apex and posterior limb dehiscence.The patient list was then subcategorized into 5 age groups, and the prevalence of SSCD was calculated for each group.
RESULTS: Retrospective review yielded 80 positive cases which included SSC dehiscence (N = 39) and thinning (N = 41). 80 normal scans were selected as control group retrospectively. Statistical analysis was performed to assess for differences between the groups studied. Pearson chi-square test applied. there was a significant association of SSC pathologies prevalence with increasing age (p = < 0.001). No significant relationship was found between SSCD and presence of either CSOM or Cholesteatoma (p = 0.285). Vertigo rather than Tullio phenomenon was the statistically significant complaint (p = <0.001). which brought the patient to the hospital.
CONCLUSIONS: The SSCD and thinning belong to the same spectrum and are acquired conditions. Increasing prevalence in old age suggests it to be an acquired condition rather than a congenital one. No significant association of these condition was seen with CSOM and cholesteatoma. Vertigo is the predominat symptom bringing the patient to hospital along with Tullio phenomenon.
