    Area of Science:

    • Otolaryngology
    • Radiology
    • Pediatrics

    Background:

    • Deafness in children can stem from various causes, including structural abnormalities.
    • The role of imaging in identifying these abnormalities needs clarification.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To determine the incidence and types of temporal bone anomalies in deaf children.
    • To correlate these anomalies with the etiology of deafness.
    • To re-evaluate the utility of roentgenographic studies in routine evaluations.

    Main Methods:

    • Physical examination
    • Audiometry
    • Temporal bone tomography
    • Medical history review
    • Analysis of medical records

    Main Results:

    • 19 out of 104 deaf students (18%) had demonstrable temporal bone abnormalities.
    • Abnormalities were found in 28 temporal bones (13%).
    • Meningitis was the only condition linked to specific pathologic changes.

    Conclusions:

    • A significant number of temporal bone abnormalities exist in the deaf pediatric population.
    • Temporal bone tomography is crucial for a comprehensive evaluation of deaf children.
    • Imaging aids in understanding the causes of deafness.
