  • Title: Imaging Review of the Temporal Bone: Part II. Traumatic, Postoperative, and Noninflammatory Nonneoplastic Conditions.
    Author: Juliano AF, Ginat DT, Moonis G.
    Journal: Radiology; 2015 Sep; 276(3):655-72. PubMed ID: 26302389.
    Abstract:
    The first part of this review of the temporal bone discussed anatomy of the temporal bone as well as inflammatory and neoplastic processes in the temporal bone region (1). This second part will first discuss trauma to the temporal bone and posttraumatic complications. The indications for common surgical procedures performed in the temporal bone and their postoperative imaging appearance are then presented. Finally, a few noninflammatory nonneoplastic entities involving the temporal bone are reviewed. They are relatively uncommon diagnoses compared with infectious or inflammatory diseases. However, because patients present with symptoms that are either common (hearing loss) or distinctive (sensorineural hearing loss in a child), they are important for the radiologist to be aware of and recognize.
