abstract="Perilymphatic fistula is usually associated with sudden or fluctuating sensorineural hearing loss. We present a case of whiplash injury in a patient who showed conductive hearing loss at low frequencies due to a perilymphatic fistula occurring in the round window. Although no middle ear pathology was found, the symptoms and laboratory findings were mimicking the so called &quot;third mobile window&quot; phenomenon, but without the presence of inner ear dehiscence. Following early surgical exploration with patching of the round window the hearing was restored and the patient was free of symptoms.<p/> <p>Language: en</p>",
