Abstract:
Objective To evaluate the clinical application value of multislice spiral CT (MSCT) in diagnosis andclinical treatment of the chronic suppurative otitis media(CSOM). Methods Multislice spiral CT with direct axial plane and saggitalmultiplanar reformation(MPR) were performed in 61 cases including 76 ears.The results from those images were comparedwith that of operations. Results The sagittal MPR images preferably could delineate the anatomical details of the temporal bone and theadjacent relationship,and could display the tympanicand mastoid segment of the facial nerve,sigmoid sinus plate and the glomusjugular better.On the sagittal MPR images,the disruption of the ossicular chain and bony erosion in the tympanic cavity and antrum weredisplayed in 38 ears.The destruction of the facial nerve canal was severe in the type of cholesteatoma compared with the type of granuloma of chronic suppurative otitis media.The congenital abnormities were showed in 8 ears of the sigmoid sinus plate and 2 ears of the glomus jugular.Conclusion CT sagittal MPR images are of significant clinical value in showing the degree and location of destruction of the canal of facial nerve , and the relation between around structures in chronic suppurative otitis media.
