Numerous attempts to deal surgically with otosclerosis were made before the current method of stapedectomy with stapes prosthesis was established. We report a case with unique CT findings of a patient who underwent fenestration surgery for otosclerosis in the early 1940s. Recognition of this old surgical procedure on the imaging scans may avoid misdiagnosis of labyrinthine fistulae or middle and inner ear malformations.
在当前采用镫骨假体的镫骨切除术方法确立之前，人们曾多次尝试通过外科手术治疗耳硬化症。我们报告了一例具有独特CT表现的病例，该患者于20世纪40年代初接受了耳硬化症开窗手术。在影像学扫描上识别这种古老的外科手术可能会避免将其误诊为迷路瘘或中耳及内耳畸形。
