Abstract
While it is rarely indicated today, fenestration of the horizontal semicircular canal has left its mark in otologic history. A significant number of patients with fenestrated ears are alive today requiring continued care. A review of both the technique of fenestration as well as the particular postoperative problems is presented to familiarize younger otologists involved in their management.
