Background
The cochlea and the carotid canal are among a number of crucial anatomic structures that extremely close one to another in the petrous pyramid of temporal bone
Anatomic knowledge of these vital structures and relations between them provides an important key to approach this complex region
![Page 3: MDCT Assessment of The Cochlear-Carotid Interval](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022062816/56816390550346895dd48501/html5/thumbnails/3.jpg)
This close anatomic course represents possible surgical risk during
petrosectomy apporach to the clivus brainstem or the middle fossa apporach to the internal
acustic meatus or most recentlly increasingly popular the cohlear
implant surgery. Especially internal carotid artery (ICA) lesion
transoperative bleeding risk difficult to control serius results associated with the irrigation of the central nervous system
![Page 4: MDCT Assessment of The Cochlear-Carotid Interval](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022062816/56816390550346895dd48501/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)
In cochlear implant surgery the risk of potential injury to the
carotid artery may be seen during drilling of the basal turn of the cochlea and improper placement of the electrode
The instance between the cochlea and the carotid artery may be also a possible reson for auditory and vestibular symptoms such as tinnitus and hearing loss.

Purpose
investigate the normal range of the this region called ‘‘ cohlear- carotid interval’’ (CCI) in a wide population by 64-slice multi-detector computed tomography (MDCT).

Materials and Method A retrospective study who had undergone a
temporal MDCT between September 2008 and March 2010
1105 patients (510 M and 595 F) 0,5 mm thickness coronal images by 64-
slice MDCT The bony interval for right and left sides
confirming from axial and sagittal planes of multiplanar reformat images
Measured independently by 2 observers

Mann Whitney U test and Sperman correlation test were used to assess differences between readers ,sides and gentles

CCI measured 0.0 mm unilateraly in 8 patients (0.7%) (Young et al.2006)
bilateraly in 2 patients (0.1%) (Modugno et al.2004)
a score of 10 in total population (0.9%) CCI scores of total population a range
of 0,0 to 6 mm for the right side (mean 0,9 ± 0.8) and 0,0 to 5.9 mm for the left side (mean 1.0 ± 0.8;)

Conclusion The cochlea- carotid interval represents a wide
variation independently from gender and the distance can be in microns
The dehisence can be seen unilateraly and more less bilateraly in a large population.
It is a developmental defect like superior semisircular canal dehisence and may be related with defects on maturation stages.

In preoperative CT imaging special attention to this close relationship may allow the radiologist :
to play a crucial role in alerting the surgeon to prevent the penetration of the carotid canal during cochlear surgery and the cochlear injury during vasculary surgery.
Possible surgical risk may result in unexpected tragic damage
