Abstract
In this article we report the case of a 41-year-old man with bilateral aural fullness and hearing loss. On examination he was found to have bilateral, dehiscent anterior canal walls with herniation of the mandibular condyle. This herniation partially obstructed the canals and contributed to his symptoms. To the best of our knowledge, this is only the third reported case of bilateral spontaneous temporomandibular joint herniation, and only 28 cases of unilateral spontaneous herniation can be found in the English language literature. While it is a rare phenomenon, it should be considered when evaluating a patient with fluctuating ear symptoms. © 2018 Vendome Group, LLC All rights reserved.
