title: [High-resolution computed tomography in diseases of the inner ear].
abstract: High-resolution CT of the petrous bone was carried out in 259 patients with clinically diagnosed abnormalities of the inner ear; in some the lesions were bilateral. In 62 patients (approximately 20%), the scans showed findings which related to the signs and symptoms. Patients with hearing loss and vestibular neuronitis showed no abnormalities. Amongst the remaining patients, the most common findings were acoustic neuromas (17 cases), cochlear otospongiosis (14 cases), malformations (13 cases) and tumours or cholesteatomas of the labyrinth (13 cases) as well as single rare isolated lesions.
