Why did we encounter gusher in a stapes surgery case? Was it enlarged medial aperture of the cochlear aqueduct?

This report is the first to show video-documented CSF gusher in a patient with enlarged medial aperture of the cochlear aqueduct. It appears to be plausible to propose that these findings have to change the otologists' and radiologists' perspective to the cochlear aqueduct. It can be deduced that difference in shapes of the medial aperture in both sides might be an indicator of potential CSF gusher.
