Labyrinthitis ossificans is the pathological ossification of the membranous labyrinthine spaces in response to processes which are destructive of the membranous labyrinth or the endosteum of the otic capsule. It has been primarily a histopathologic diagnosis. Complex motion tomography however, allows a detailed view of the osseous labyrinth and permits the diagnosis in the living state. Radiologic documentation of labyrinthitis ossificans is objective evidence of a process destructive of the membranous labyrinth. It supports the likelihood of an absence of cochlear and vestibular function. It alerts the surgeon to the possible obliteration of key inner ear anatomical landmarks.
骨化性迷路炎是膜迷路间隙的病理性骨化，是对破坏膜迷路或耳囊骨内膜的过程的反应。它主要是一种组织病理学诊断。然而，复杂运动体层摄影术能提供骨迷路的详细图像，并能在活体状态下进行诊断。骨化性迷路炎的放射学记录是膜迷路受到破坏的客观证据。它支持耳蜗和前庭功能缺失的可能性。它提醒外科医生注意内耳关键解剖标志可能被闭塞。
