Ninetypediatric patients diagnosed with congenital sensorineural hearing loss (SNHL) betweenNovember 2006 and September 2008 were assessed by 3D-CISS MRI to evaluate thecranial nerve VIII with respect to congenital abnormalities of the inner ear. Of the 90patients included in the study group, 44 were male (48.9%) and 46 were female (51.1%)at an age varying from 1 to 16 years old (5.97±4.04 years). The structures of 180 innerears of 90 pediatric patients were assessed. Pathology was detected in 48 inner ears(26.6%) with any of the cochlear, vestibular, semi-circular canal and vestibular aqueductabnormalities. Among 24 patients (26.6%), Michel deformity (1.66%), cochlear aplasia(4.98%), common cavity deformity (2.22%), cochlear hypoplasia (3.33%) and Mondinimalformation (2.77%) was detected in 3, 9, 4, 6 and 5 inner ears, respectively. Internalauditory canal (IAC) assessment revealed dilatation in 11 inner ears, hypoplasia in 6,aplasia in 1 and vestibular aqueduct (VAD) dilatation in 9 inner ears. CISS MRI is aneffective imaging technique for assessing the inner ear abnormalities, the presence ofnerve VIII in patients with congenital sensorineural hearing loss. Thus, we believe CISSMRI imaging should be performed before any operation in all patients, who may becandidates for cochlear implantation.
