Methods: A prospective observational study was conducted. A mid-scalar electrode was
surgically placed using a mastoidectomy, followed by a posterior tympanotomy and an …

Background: In CI surgery, the electrode array should be inserted into and remain within the
scala tympani to avoid injury to Reissner's membrane and the scala media. Correlating the …

Conclusion. The modified round window insertion enables reproducible insertion into the
scala tympani as demonstrated by comparing the 64-CT scanning data and the surgeon's …

Objective: To use the improved resolution available with 64-slice multidetector computed
tomography (MDCT) in vivo to localize the cochlear implant electrode array within the basal …

Objective. To observe the intracochlear behavior of a cochlear implant electrode insertion
technique (called “pullback”) in temporal bones. Study Design. Experimental. Settings …

Objectives/Hypothesis To investigate electrode position, depth of insertion, and electrode
contact using an electrode array with a mid‐scala design following round window (RW) and …

Objective The objective of this study is to examine the influence of electrode array design on
the position of the basal-most electrode in cochlear implant (CI) surgery and therefore the …

Objective Preoperative information about cochlear morphology and size increasingly seems
to be a defining factor of electrode choice in cochlear implant surgery. Different types of …

Background Modern cochlear implant surgery aims for a safe intracochlear placement of
electrode arrays with an ongoing debate regarding cochleostomy or round window (RW) …

Objective: To evaluate the electrode status during cochlear implantation (CI) using mobile
cone-beam CT (mCBCT). Study Design: Retrospective case review. Setting: Tertiary referral …
