Abstract

We have studied 47 children (58 ears) with external and middle-ear malformations. Tomography was useful and effective in the pre-operative evaluation of anatomical patterns. We have divided our cases into four groups and described the most characteristic tomographic findings in each. We also discuss problems concerning patients immobilization and X-ray protection.
