Meniere's disease and the mastoid pneumatization.
The size of the mastoid penumatization was radiographically examined and planimetrically measured in the patients with Meniere's disease, patients with other sensorineural hearing loss and clinically ear healthy persons. Law projection was used for the radiographical examination. No statistical differences were seen among the three groups. Meniere's disease and the factors which influence the mastoid pneumatization are discussed.
