Intraoperative Facial Nerve Monitoring During Cochlear Implant Surgery
Iatrogenic facial nerve injury is one of the most severe complications of cochlear implantation (CI) surgery. Intraoperative facial nerve monitoring (IFNM) is used as an adjunctive modality in a variety of neurotologic surgeries. The purpose of this retrospective study was to assess whether the use of IFNM is associated with postoperative facial nerve injury during CI surgery. The medical chart...

OBJECTIVES/HYPOTHESIS To evaluate the correlation between a narrow bony cochlear nerve canal (BCNC) and facial nerve stimulation (FNS) after cochlear implantation (CI) and their underlying mechanisms and to predict the risk of FNS preoperatively. STUDY DESIGN Retrospective cohort study. METHODS A total of 64 pediatric cases that underwent CI were included. Among them, 32 cases experienced F...
full textRevision cochlear implantation for facial nerve stimulation in otosclerosis.
OBJECTIVE To find if patients experiencing postsurgical facial nerve stimulation caused by underlying disease process (ie, otosclerosis) can improve their hearing performance with their cochlear implant by reimplantation and by an optimal programming strategy. DESIGN Retrospective analysis. SETTING Academic tertiary referral center. PATIENTS Two cochlear otosclerosis patients with resista...
full textFacial nerve stimulation after cochlear implantation: our experience
Facial nerve stimulation (FNS) after cochlear implant activation is a well-known side effect, with an incidence rate raging between 1% and 14.9%. Some causes of deafness have been associated with a higher incidence of this entity, however, there is still no consensus regarding its pathophysiological mechanisms. Although FNS can be solved with changes in speech processor programming, in some cas...
full textSphenopalatine ganglion electrical nerve stimulation implant for intractable facial pain.
Persistent idiopathic facial pain can be extremely difficult and significantly challenging to manage for the patient and the clinician. Pharmacological treatment of these painful conditions is not always successful. It has been suggested that the autonomic reflex plays an important role in the pathophysiology of headaches and facial neuralgia. The key structure in the expression of cranial auto...
