Introduction Otosclerosis is a primary osteodystrophy of the otic capsule, frequently
responsible for acquired hearing loss in adults. Although the diagnostic value of imaging …

Background: Enlarged vestibular aqueduct (EVA) syndrome can mimic otosclerosis in
adults, presenting with an air–bone gap (ABG) and even absent stapedial reflexes. The ABG …

Objective The availability of an audiological evaluation for the differential diagnosis of
clinical otosclerosis (OS) was examined. Methods Included were 98 patients (107 ears) with …
