ABSTRACT
@#Superior semicircular canal dehiscence (SSCD) syndrome is an unusual cause of vertigo that was first identified by Minor in 1998. The patients initially described by Minor presented with vertigo, oscillopsia and/or dysequilibrium related to sound, changes in middle ear pressure and/or changes in intracranial pressure due to an absence of the bony layer that normally covers the superior semicircular canal.1Subsequent clinical studies have shown that the condition may lead to a variety of vestibular and/or auditory symptoms that mimic other otologic disorders. These symptoms include autophony, ear blockage or fullness, conductive hearing loss, pulsatile tinnitus, dizziness or vertigo with head movements and general disequilibrium.
