Abstract

© 2020, Springer-Verlag GmbH Germany, part of Springer Nature. Temporal bone dehiscence is an infrequent but clinically important phenomenon. Cochlear–facial dehiscence, the rarest type, has been described only in adults. We report cochlear–facial dehiscence in a child. Knowledge of this entity is imperative for radiologists searching for anatomical markers of inner ear pathology and for cochlear implant planning.
