Abstract
In the context of hearing loss complicating otosclerosis surgery, an imaging workup should include a CT scan. In case of a suspected expansive and inflammatory mass, it should be completed by an MRI (CISS sequence and gadolinium injection). An inflammatory lesion of the inner ear could indicate extensive pseudotumor.
