摘要：

A rare case of a congenital fistula of the stapes footplate, in a 10-year-old girl, resulting in recurrent meningitis, is reported. A full ENT examination and a high index of suspicion, is essential if the diagnosis is to be made. Exploratory tympanotomy should be considered on clinical grounds, even if a high resolution CT scan of the temporal bones does not show any anomalies, in order to ascertain the definite diagnosis of a fistula and to seal it permanently.
