Universidad de Zaragoza (orcid)0000-0001-9372-4267 Association between tegmen tympani status and superior semicircular canal pattern 2016 Access copy available to the general public Unrestricted Objective: Detecting and quantifying the possible association between tegmen tympani (TT) status and superior semicircular canal (SSC) pattern. Design: Observational study. Setting: Study conducted in three tertiary Spanish hospitals. Patients: Nonselected consecutive patients of all ages (607 temporal bones). Interventions: Thin-section multidetector row computed axial tomography (CAT scan) of the temporal bones. Main Outcome Measure: Thickness of SSC bone coverture adjacent to the middle fossa, and TT status as a dichotomous variable: dehiscence (TTD) or integrity (TTI). Results: The observed SSC patterns were dehiscence (3.79%), papyraceous or thin (11.20%), normal (76.77%), thick (4.94%), and pneumatized (3.29%). The observed TT statuses were TTD (10.87%) and TTI (89.13%). TTD was associated with SSCD and papyraceous patterns, and TTI percentages were higher in normal and thick patterns (x2=11.102; p=0.001). The TTD probability was estimated as a function of SSC pattern and age by a multivariate binary logistics regression model (x2=45.939; p<0.001). Conclusion: SSC pattern was significantly associated with TT status. Age influenced this association. The risk for TTD increased by 4.1% per each year of increasing age, did not differ significantly for normal and thick patterns, and increased 12 times and 20 times for papyraceous and SSCD patterns, respectively. info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess All rights reserved http://www.europeana.eu/rights/rr-f/ 2.024 2016 OTORHINOLARYNGOLOGY 13 / 42 = 0.31 2016 Q2 T1 CLINICAL NEUROLOGY 121 / 193 = 0.627 2016 Q3 T2 1.343 2016 Medicine (miscellaneous) 2016 Q1 Neurology (clinical) 2016 Q1 Otorhinolaryngology 2016 Q1 Sensory Systems 2016 Q2 info:eu-repo/semantics/article info:eu-repo/semantics/acceptedVersion Tejedor, M.T.
