By Philippa Thomson and Gerard J. Gianoli

Beyond only Superior Canal Dehiscence , this book strives to provide a deeper knowledge of Third Mobile Window Syndrome and its different forms .

It will clarify the numerous Third Mobile Window Syndrome manifestations, offer a method for diagnosis and explain remedies . Dr. Lloyd Minor of Baltimore’s John Hopkins University School of Medicine first identified the condition Superior Semicircular Canal Dehiscence Syndrome in 1995 . Although he published his findings in 1998 , the subject has yet to be fully covered in a book .

Because of this , this illness and its presentation are still poorly understood by many neurotologists and otorhinolaryngologists . The article is divided into six sections, with the first one being crucial for setting the scene , bringing everything that has been learned since 1998 together and describing the complexity of the condition .

The objectives of the second and third portions are to describe in full all the elements required for diagnosing a patient and selecting the most appropriate surgical or non-surgical course of action .

The pediatric patient and bilateral SCDS are two examples of the unusual cases discussed in part four . Philippa Thomson, a patient herself, will outline the patient’s perspective on symptoms in part five . She will also outline the challenging process of making a diagnosis and obtaining professional care .

Future research is finally covered in part six . The knowledge required to help patients with Third Mobile Window Syndrome will be provided by Third Mobile Window Syndrome of the Inner Ear : Superior Semicircular Canal Dehiscence and Associated Disorders for clinicians involved in the treatment of inner ear disorders , balance issues and vertigo .

Additionally , neurologists , otolaryngologists and neurotologists will benefit from the material . The field of inner ear diseases research will also benefit from reading this text .
