It contains the endolymphatic duct, which connects the inner ear with the endolymphatic sac. The endolymph is the fluid in the inner ear.<\/p><p>Normally, the vestibular aqueduct is very narrow: at half its length it is less than 1 mm wide - about the width of a pin. In some people, however, the vestibular aqueduct is wider, measuring between 1.5 mm and 8 mm. This is known as an enlarged vestibular aqueduct (EVA).<\/p><p>People with EVA often have sensorineural hearing loss, with or without vertigo and balance problems. These problems often begin in childhood; between 5-15% of children with sensorineural hearing loss have EVA. These problems are more common in girls than boys and are more common on both sides (bilaterally) than on one side. As a rule, hearing deteriorates over time.<\/p><p>EVA was first discovered in 1791, but the link between EVA and hearing loss was not described until 1978.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-61c9686c e-con-full e-flex e-con e-child\" data-id=\"61c9686c\"

It is important to identify hearing loss as early as possible so that children and their caregivers can develop skills to help them communicate. These skills include sign language and spoken language, which uses hand signals and other visual signs to make the 'building blocks' of speech (phonemes) visible.<\/p><p>You or your child will need to have regular check-ups to monitor their hearing and see if there have been any changes. This is especially important for very young children who may not yet be able to tell you if something is wrong.
