From Sound to Silence: Cerebellar Abscesses and Herniation Due to Cochlear Implant Infection With Escherichia coli and Bacteroides fragilis

Case Reports in Infectious Diseases, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
Cochlear implantation (CI) is a safe and well‐established intervention for sensorineural hearing loss, with a low incidence of severe postoperative infections. We present the first reported case of cerebellar abscess and herniation due to CI infection. This unique case involves a 57‐year‐old man with recurrent cochlear implant infections, necessitating
