[Dilated vestibular aqueduct syndrome in children. Report of a case].
Enlarged vestibular aqueduct syndrome is a clinical condition characterized for a progressive perceptive deafness linked to a broadening of vestibular aqueduct greater than 1.5 mm without other otic abnormal structures. We report the case of a 2-year-old child with such congenital malformation. We have reviewed the actual literature and point out its clinical and physiopathologic features as well treatment possibilities of these cases.
