The study population was also screened for the presence of follow-up imaging. Only patients with imaging data available after at least two years or more were included in the study. Demographic data, clinical symptoms, and imaging findings were analyzed using descriptive statistics. The imaging findings of semicircular canal dehiscence were categorized by location and severity, and the long-term development was evaluated. More than 1500 HRCTs of the temporal bone taken in children ages 0 to 10 years old from 2006 to 2025 were additionally examined for the presence of SCC dehiscence.<\/jats:p>\n                  <jats:p>Of the 586 HRCT scans performed on young patients under three years of age, 93 examinations for which follow-up examinations were available two or more years later could be recorded. These were distributed among 32 children with an average age of 11.3 \u00b1 7.4 months (range 3\u201324 months). At the time of initial imaging (baseline examination), 46 SCDs of the superior or posterior semicircular canal were identified. A total of 36 ears were affected. In the subsequent HRCT examination, conducted 2\u201313 years later, the extent of bone coverage was consistently quantifiable. The mean thickness of the bone over the site of the previous dehiscence was 1 mm (range 0.2\u20133.3 mm).<\/jats:p>\n                  <jats:p>In the vast majority of cases, the SCC dehiscence observed in studies of the temporal bones of young children will be covered by normal bone growth by puberty. This suggests that SCC dehiscence does not persist from birth into adulthood, and instead it supports the theory of an acquired pathogenesis of SCC dehiscence.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1055\/a-2725-8648","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2025,11,11]],"date-time":"2025-11-11T23:45:12Z","timestamp":1762904712000},"page":"781-788","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":0,"title":["Closure
