Cochlear Implantation in Patients Profoundly Deafened After Head Injury

open access: yesOtology & Neurotology, 2012
There is very little information in the literature regarding outcomes of cochlear implantation in patients profoundly deafened after head injury. The aim of this study was to assess outcomes in this group of patients.Retrospective case review.The Manchester Cochlear Implant Programme, University of Manchester.Profoundly deafened patients after head ...

Protective Effects of Corticosteroids and Neurosteroids on Cochlear Injury

Medicinal Chemistry, 2011
Dysfunction of the cochlea causes sensorineural hearing loss. Glucocorticoids have been clinically applied for sensorineural hearing loss of sudden onset, including idiopathic sudden sensorineural hearing loss, acoustic injury, Meniere's disease, and immune-mediated hearing loss.

Methylprednisolone Ameliorates Cochlear Nerve Degeneration Following Mechanical Injury

Hearing Research, 2001
We investigated whether methylprednisolone sodium succinate can ameliorate cochlear nerve degeneration following compression injury on the cerebellopontine angle portion of the cochlear nerve, using a quantitative animal experimental model that we have developed recently.

Facial nerve injury in cochlear implantation

Otolaryngology–Head and Neck Surgery, 1993
We present eight cases of FN dysfunction after cochlear implantation. Four mechanisms of injury are proposed. The most common injury occurs from the heat of a bur shaft rotating over the FN in the facial recess. Several suggestions are made to help prevent the type of injuries we have seen.

Cochlear implantation after burn injury of the head

Cochlear Implants International, 2011
The loss of an auricle as a side-effect of burn injuries is a rare clinical event. If the patient also suffers fromsensorineural deafness, it is necessary, in planning management, to consider the aesthetic effects ofreconstructing or replacing the auricle as well as restoring the hearing.

Cochlear injuries induced by the combined exposure to noise and styrene

Hearing Research, 2009
Workers exposed to industrial solvents are also frequently exposed to mechanical noise. In this study, a combination of a continuous noise (100 dB SPL) and an impact noise (110 dB SPL) was used to mimic the noise exposure in the workplace. A noise band of 10-20 kHz was used to induce a cochlear injury in the same cochlear region in the rat as styrene ...
