Abstract

The dehiscense of the semicircular superior channel Syndrome (SDCSS) was described in the past years on patients who suffered from vertigo and nistagmus induced by pressure associated to a slimming of the superior semicircular canal wall. The diagnosis of the Picture is based on clinic, however the image techniques play an important role in the certification of the Picture. The treatment is essentially surgical, depending on the symptomatology. We believe it is important to consider this diagnosis in all patients who suffer vertigo, as it could be a potentially treatable cause of its symptomatology.
