[Cochleovestibular syndrome caused by sphenoiditis]

Due to sphenoiditis, the patient developed a cochleovestibular syndrome at the labyrinthine level which was eliminated only by surgical treatment of sphenoiditis. This observation suggests that sphenoiditis can be referred to the factors responsible for hearing and vestibular disorders. Another interesting observation was that in the presence of pus in the sphenoidal sinus contrast X-ray did not reveal a filling defect. Such a finding was not the first of this type seen by the author.
