A literature review of otosyphilis was undertaken based on a PubMed search of studies published between 1988 and 2012, using the key words \u2018otosyphilis\u2019, \u2018otodystrophy\u2019, \u2018otic capsule lucencies\u2019 and \u2018luetic osteitis\u2019.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec id=\"S0022215113003575_sec3\"><jats:title>Results and conclusion:<\/jats:title><jats:p>Although rare, otosyphilis is important to recognise as it is one of the few treatable causes of deafness when diagnosed early. The differentiating computed tomography features of luetic osteitis (otosyphilis) of the temporal bone have only rarely been described. We emphasise how these imaging features can be used to distinguish the rare but treatable condition of luetic osteitis from other, more common conditions with similar imaging findings.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1017\/s0022215113003575","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2014,1,30]],"date-time":"2014-01-30T13:54:31Z","timestamp":1391090071000},"page":"185-188","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":17,"title":["Computed tomography features of luetic osteitis (otosyphilis) of the temporal bone"],"prefix":"10.1017","volume":"128","author":[{"given":"A","family":"Ogungbemi","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"C","family":"Dudau","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"S","family":"Morley","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"T","family":"Beale","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"56","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2014,1,30]]},"reference":[{"key":"S0022215113003575_ref9","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1177\/000348941011901201"},{"key":"S0022215113003575_ref6","first-page":"1106","article-title":"Osteogenesis imperfecta of the temporal bone: CT and MR imaging in Van der Hoeve-de Kleyn syndrome","volume":"25","author":"Alkadhi","year":"2004","journal-title":"AJNR Am J Neuroradiol"},{"key":"S0022215113003575_ref1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/0720-048X(90)90098-V"},{"key":"S0022215113003575_ref2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1053\/j.sult.2004.04.001"},{"key":"S0022215113003575_ref3","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1148\/radiol.2241001707"},{"key":"S0022215113003575_ref4","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/S0194-5998(95)70292-X"},{"key":"S0022215113003575_ref5","first-page":"834","article-title":"Otosyphilis: a practical guide to diagnosis and treatment","volume":"41","author":"Guttenplan","year":"1989","journal-title":"Trans Pa Acad Ophthalmol Otolaryngol"},{"key":"S0022215113003575_ref7","first-page":"259","article-title":"Temporal bone histopathology case of the month: otosyphilis","volume":"20","author":"Fayad","year":"1999","journal-title":"Am J Otol"},{"key":"S0022215113003575_ref8","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1097\/00129492-200209000-00033"}],"container-title":["The Journal of Laryngology &amp; Otology"],"original-title":[],"language":"en","link":[{"URL":"https:\/\/www.cambridge.org\/core\/services\/aop-cambridge-core\/content\/view\/S0022215113003575","content-type":"unspecified","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"similarity-checking"}],"deposited":{"date-parts":[[2019,4,23]],"date-time":"2019-04-23T00:22:08Z","timestamp":1555978928000},"score":1,"resource":{"primary":{"URL":"https:\/\/www.cambridge.org\/core\/product\/identifier\/S0022215113003575\/type\/journal_article"}},"subtitle":[],"short-title":[],"issued":{"date-parts":[[2014,1,30]]},"references-count":9,"journal-issue":{"issue":"2","published-print":{"date-parts":[[2014,2]]}},"alternative-id":["S0022215113003575"],"URL":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1017\/s0022215113003575","relation":{},"ISSN":["0022-2151","1748-5460"],"issn-type":[{"value":"0022-2151","type":"print"},{"value":"1748-5460","type":"electronic"}],"subject":[],"published":{"date-parts":[[2014,1,30]]}}}
