Abstract
Otosclerosis (OE) is one of the main causes of hearing loss in young adults, with a preponderance of the female sex, with a 2:1 ratio. High-resolution tomography focused on temporal bone is a fundamental tool for diagnosis, allowing subtle changes in density in the ear capsule to be detected. Depending on the location of these findings, EO can be classified into fenestral and retrofenestral. The fourth turn sign provides valuable information for diagnosis, classification, and surgical planning
