OBJECTIVE: Review of a sigmoid sinus diverticuli (SSDi) variants surgically managed with a novel technique using an inferior periosteal flap. STUDY DESIGN: Case series. SETTING: Tertiary referral center. PATIENTS: Patients presenting with pulsatile tinnitus to a tertiary referral center between January 1, 2015, and June 31, 2021, who were diagnosed with SSDi variants on CT temporal bone and who received surgical management for these SSDi variants. INTERVENTIONS: Obliteration of SSDi variants using a novel technique with an inferiorly based periosteal flap. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: Pure-tone audiometry, Tinnitus Handicap Inventory score, and visual analogue scale score for tinnitus severity (loudness, awareness, annoyance, and effect on life). RESULTS: Include statistical measures as appropriate. CONCLUSIONS: We would like to propose the use of an inferiorly based periosteal flap as an option for obliteration and concomitant hemostasis of more sizeable or complex (e.g., bifid) SSDi. Further study of this technique with a long-term follow-up will be needed to evaluate its long-term safety and efficacy.
