Recurrent meningitis and cerebrospinal fluid leak-two sides of the same vestibulocochlear defect: report of three cases

M Ben-Shoshan et al. Eur J Pediatr. 2007 Mar.

Abstract

Cochlear dysplasia is a rare congenital anomaly. However, early detection of this anomaly can prevent serious consequences. We describe three cases of cochlear dysplasia that presented with recurrent meningitis and cerebro-spinal fluid (CSF) leak in children in which early diagnosis prevented further complications.
