Zusammenfassung: | The Superior Semicircular Canal Dehiscence Syndrome (SSCDS) is characterized by bone wear layer overlying the superior semicircular canal. Common symptoms of SSCDS the presence of vertigo associated with nystagmus induced by intense sound stimuli or changes in intracranial pressure or middle ear. The aim of this study is to describe the audiological and vestibular findings of two patients diagnosed with Superior Semicircular Canal Deiscence Syndrome, with confirmed diagnosis by computed tomography. Meatoscopy, anamnesis, pure tone audiometry and vocal followed by the acoustic impedance measurements, audiometric Weber, research Tulio phenomenon and Valsalva maneuver, performed by the same researcher in one session were held. Air-bone gap were observed, type A tympanometric curve and acoustic reflex. The air-bone gap is presented with greater amplitude at low frequencies. Hearing complaints were not reported by patients as the first symptoms. Weber showed lateralization in both cases, confirming the presence of gap. The Thulium phenomenon is positive for vertigo in both cases. The Valsalva maneuver showed a change in only one case. Keywords: Hearing; Audiometry; Semicircular Canals; Nystagmus, Pathologic; Dizziness A Sindrome da Deiscencia do Canal Semicircular Superior (SDCSS) e caracterizada pelo desgaste da camada ossea que recobre o canal semicircular superior. Sao sintomas comuns da SDCSS a presenca de vertigem associada a nistagmos induzidos por estimulos sonoros intensos ou por modificacoes das pressoes intracraniana ou da orelha media. O objetivo deste trabalho e descrever os achados audiologicos e vestibulares de dois pacientes com diagnostico de Sindrome da Deiscencia do Canal Semicircular Superior, com diagnostico confirmado por meio de tomografia computadorizada. Foram realizadas meatoscopia, anamnese, audiometria tonal e vocal seguida das medidas de imitancia acustica, Weber audiometrico, pesquisa do fenomeno de Tulio e manobra de Valsalva, realizados pela mesma pesquisadora em uma unica sessao. Foram observados gap aereo-osseo, curva timpanometrica tipo A e reflexos acusticos presentes. O gap aereo-osseo apresenta-se com maior amplitude nas frequencias baixas. As queixas auditivas nao foram relatadas pelas pacientes como os primeiros sintomas. O Weber mostrou lateralizacao, nos dois casos, confirmando a presenca de gap. O fenomeno de Tulio apresentou-se positivo para vertigem em ambos os casos. A manobra de Valsalva apresentou alteracao em apen |
