Ipsilateral Vestibular Schwannoma after Cochlear Implantation
Case Reports in Otolaryngology, 2022 Objective. The vestibular schwannoma incidence rate is approximately 4.2 per 100,000/year. Thus far, about 700,000 cochlear implantations have been performed worldwide; therefore, the occurrence of vestibular schwannoma postcochlear implantations can be ...

Brain and Behavior, Volume 12, Issue 12, December 2022., 2022 Abstract Purpose Our purpose was to explore the relationship between cognitive impairment and neural network changes in patients newly diagnosed with self‐limited epilepsy with centrotemporal spikes (SeLECTS). Methods The Wechsler Intelligence Scale for Children, fourth edition was used to divide all SeLECTS patients into two groups: patients with full‐

The UmboMic: A PVDF Cantilever Microphone [PDF]
, 2023 Objective: We present the "UmboMic," a prototype piezoelectric cantilever microphone designed for future use with totally-implantable cochlear implants. Methods: The UmboMic sensor is made from polyvinylidene difluoride (PVDF) because of its low Young's modulus and biocompatibility. The sensor is designed to fit in the middle ear and measure the motion

Cochlear Implantation in Extraordinary Cases
Balkan Medical Journal, 2015 Background: Although cochlear implantation has been almost a standard otological procedure worldwide, it may still create a dilemma for the surgeon in some unusual instances such as Seckel syndrome, aural atresia and posterior fossa arachnoid cyst ...

Subjective Fatigue in Children With Unaided and Aided Unilateral Hearing Loss
The Laryngoscope, Volume 133, Issue 1, Page 189-198, January 2023., 2023 Objectives Fatigue is frequently observed in children with chronic diseases and can affect the quality of life (QoL). However, research in children with unilateral hearing loss (UHL) is scarce. Subsequently, no studies investigated the effects of hearing aids on fatigue in children.

Cochlear implantation in a patient with mucopolysaccharidosis IVA
SAGE Open Medical Case Reports, 2019 Mucopolysaccharidosis IVA (OMIM 253000; also known as Morquio A syndrome) is associated with skeletal, airway, and hearing abnormalities. Cochlear implantation is an effective intervention for patients with severe-to-profound hearing loss.

An Implantable Piezofilm Middle Ear Microphone: Performance in Human Cadaveric Temporal Bones [PDF]
, 2023 Purpose: One of the major reasons that totally implantable cochlear microphones are not readily available is the lack of good implantable microphones. An implantable microphone has the potential to provide a range of benefits over external microphones for cochlear implant users including the filtering ability of the outer ear, cosmetics, and usability ...

Cochlear Implantation in Neurobrucellosis
Balkan Medical Journal, 2016 Neurobrucellosis is a disease consisting of a wide spectrum of complications such as peripheral neuropathy, cranial nerve involvement, ataxia, meningeal irritation, paraplegia, seizures, coma, and even death. The vestibulocochlear nerve seems to be the most commonly affected cranial nerve (10%). We present a patient with neurobrucellosis whose auditory

Experimental validation of a three-dimensional heat transfer model within the scala tympani with application to magnetic cochlear implant surgery [PDF]
IEEE Transactions on Biomedical Engineering, 2021, 2020 Magnetic guidance of cochlear implants is a promising technique to reduce the risk of physical trauma during surgery. In this approach, a magnet attached to the tip of the implant electrode array is guided within the scala tympani using a magnetic field.
