Abstract:
The human vestibular aqueducts are classified into 3 types and into the types hyper-, normo- and hypoplastic. The types correspond with each other up to over 85%. For a better understanding of the radioanatomy and for the proper interpretation of radiograms, we describe the presence of a flat recess-like widening of the peripheral portion of the aqueduct, as well as other findings.
