Clinical evaluation of cochlear implantation in children younger than 12 months of age
ABSTRACT Importance Cochlear implantation (CI) is an effective therapy for patients with severe to profound sensorineural hearing loss. It remains controversial whether children younger than 12 months of age should undergo CI. Objective To evaluate the safety and effectiveness of CI in children younger than 12 months of age.

Recurrent Bacterial Meningitis Associated With Mondini Dysplasia
We reported two cases of recurrent meningitis and both of them had Mondini dysplasia, which provides a link between the brain and inner ear and is associated with cerebrospinal fluid, otorrhea/rhinorrhea, hearing impairment, and recurrent meningitis ...

Salivary gland choristoma is an extremely rare middle ear mass and is hypothesized to be caused by second branchial arch developmental anomalies. We present a 14‐year‐old girl with Dandy–Walker syndrome and conductive hearing loss. Middle ear exploration revealed a large middle ear mass with absent incus and stapes and displaced facial nerve.

Pilot study of large-scale production of mutant pigs by ENU mutagenesis
N-ethyl-N-nitrosourea (ENU) mutagenesis is a powerful tool to generate mutants on a large scale efficiently, and to discover genes with novel functions at the whole-genome level in Caenorhabditis elegans, flies, zebrafish and mice, but it has never been ...

Objectives. To evaluate children with inner ear malformations following cochlear implantation (CI) in a tertiary pediatric hospital in Singapore to identify factors influencing outcomes after CI. Methods. This is a retrospective cohort study of children aged 0 to 18 years, who had CI between 2000 and 2013. Demographic information, data on risk factors,
