Overview
Our temporal bone registry contains a detailed description of each specimen, including the associated medical and otologic history, any available auditory and vestibular test data, a description of the histopathologic findings, appropriate photomicrographs depicting the significant pathologic conditions, a summary emphasizing clinical significance, and the otopathologic diagnoses. All temporal bone data are catalogued using a computerized database that greatly facilitates the retrieval of historical and pathologic information.
