Abstract
AbstractAn abnormally large vestibular aqueduct has a well recognized association with inner ear anomalies and it has been assumed previously to be a variant of a Mondini type of deformity (Shuknecht, 1980; Emmett, 1985). The sole radiological finding in some patients with progressive sensorineural loss has been a large vestibular aqueduct (Valvassori and Clemis, 1978; Valvassori, 1983), which is now accepted as a separate clinical entity, i.e. the large vestibular aqueduct syndrome (LVAS).A case is presented which is believed to be the first reported with unilateral LVAS and stapes fixation and also the first stapes gusher described in association with LVAS.
