Treating Hearing Loss: From Cochlear Implantation to Gene Therapy
Advanced Science, EarlyView.Cochlear implantation is the primary treatment for deafness, restoring functional hearing in over a million people. Recently, gene therapy has enabled biological hearing restoration in a small number of patients with OTOF‐related mutations. This perspective evaluates both approaches, concluding that cochlear implants will remain the standard for most ...
