BACKGROUND The inserted cochlear implanted electrode is covered at the site of the round window or cochleostomy to prevent infections and leakage. In a surgically hearing preservational concept, low intracochlear pressure changes are of high importance. The aim of this study was to observe intracochlear pressure changes due to different sealing techniques in a cochlear model. METHODS Cochlear...
Hearing preservation and cochlear implants according to inner ear approach: multicentric evaluation.
INTRODUCTION Electroacoustic stimulation is an excellent option for people with residual hearing in the low frequencies, who obtain insufficient benefit with hearing aids. To be effective, the subject's residual hearing should be preserved during cochlear implant surgery. OBJECTIVES To evaluate the hearing preservation in patients that underwent implant placement and to compare the results in...
The 'Veria operation' is a new technique for cochlear implantation. It is a non-mastoidectomy technique and uses the endaural approach for the cochleostomy and a direct tunnel drilled through the supero-posterior bony canal wall for the electrode. Two special instruments have been developed for this technique: a special perforator for the drilling of the direct tunnel and a safety electrode for...
OBJECTIVES We report novel mutations in the POU3F4 gene resulting in congenital X-linked deafness DFN3, and describe the results of cochlear implantation in 4 boys (3 siblings) followed for an average of 3.5 years. METHODS The diagnosis of DFN3 was made in infant boys on the basis of the radiologic criteria of an underdeveloped modiolus, a wide cochlear fossette, and the presence of all cochl...
Pneumococcal otogenic meningitis is a rare postsurgical complication that can develop following stapedectomy or after cochlear implantation. The bacterial infection can be fatal in some instances. A recent increase in the incidence of otogenic meningitis among cochlear implant wearers is of concern. The majority of meningitis cases are associated with a 2-component electrode manufactured by one...
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Localization of the electrode after cochlear implantation seems to have an impact on auditory outcome, and conebeam CT has emerged as a reliable method for visualizing the electrode array position within the cochlea. The aim of this retrospective study was to evaluate the frequency and clinical impact of scalar dislocation of various electrodes and surgical approaches and...
cochlear implantation has become an increasingly common procedure in the rehabilitation of selected cases of profound deafness.' patients should have profound total bilateral sensorineural hearing loss. sound is transformed into small electric currents which stimulate the auditory nerves in the cochlea and generate the hearing sensation. the nucleus cochlear implant is the result of more t...
The depth of electrode insertion of a multichannel cochlear implant has been suggested as a clinical variable that may correlate with word recognition using the implant. The current study evaluates this relationship using the human temporal bone collection at the Massachusetts Eye and Ear Infirmary. Twenty-seven temporal bones of subjects with cochlear implants were studied. Temporal bones were...
UNLABELLED Electroacoustic stimulation in subjects with residual hearing is becoming more widely used in clinical practice. However, little is known about the properties of electrically induced responses in the hearing cochlea. In the present study, normal-hearing guinea pig cochleae underwent cochlear implantation through a cochleostomy without significant loss of hearing. Using recordings of ...
