Third Window Syndrome

Third Window Syndrome is a pathophysiological phenomenon in vestibular neurotology, classified as a biomechanical disturbance of inner ear fluid dynamics, distinguished by the creation of an abnormal, non-physiological communication (third mobile window) in the bony labyrinth—most commonly at the superior semicircular canal—that diverts acoustic and inertial energy, leading to audiovestibular symptoms such as sound- or pressure-induced vertigo, autophony, and hypersensitive hearing.
