-usually surrounded by bone in jugular fossa, but can have congenital dehiscence.
-“High riding” bulb = bulb that rises above the inferior aspect of the bony annulus or the basal round of the cochlea.
-Present in 5% of people, may be related to poor pneumatization of mastoid.
-Can present with tinnitus, vestibular symptoms and CHL (due to compression of middle ear contents)
