O termo osteopetrose envolve um conjunto relativamente heterogéneo de variantes, todas elas raras, que apresentam como denominador comum uma deficiente capacidade de reabsorção óssea por parte dos osteoclastos. Fenotipicamente, estas alterações traduzem-se por um aumento generalizado da massa do esqueleto e ultraestructuralmente por uma matriz óssea espessada, esclerosada e fragilizada. A propósito do caso clín...
In this review of cochlear malformations, 17 cases were studied by CT scan (high resolution-target program) including 10 males and 7 females. The anomaly was bilateral in 12 cases and unilateral in 7 (the latter included 2 Mondini type aplasias and one Michel). The cochlear malformation (whose most frequent expression was the cochlear hypoplasia with 1 or 1 1/2 spires-65% of the cases) was associated to semicir...
Sixty patients with stapediovestibular otosclerosis (OEV) were studied by CT-scan (target program). These patients had stapedectomy indication because they had a conductive hearing loss in which one had an A/B gap of > 25 dB. The leading principle of this study was how to know the main indications of the CT-scan which makes it possible for morphologic and densitometric evaluation of the extension and probable a...
In this review of cochlear otosclerosis 14 cases were studied by CT scan aiming to establish a densitometric pattern of the capsular foci and relating it to the hearing and vestibule dysfunctions. Severe demineralization with characteristics of probable activity (increased lucency of 30-40%) was demonstrated in the capsular foci. These were mainly cochlear with endosteal involvement (93%): large (64%) or discre...
