Abstract

Incomplete partition IP type III anomaly X-linked deformity, IP type III is a rare malformation of the inner ear. In these patients, cochlear implant surgery can be performed successfully. In this case report, we discussed the problems regarding cochlear implantation in patients with IP type III anomaly and profound sensorineural hearing loss. Cochlear implantation is a good choice for these patients. However, IP type III anomaly may pose some unusual risks in addition to other inner ear abnormalities. Therefore, the surgeon should be aware of these and must be ready to inform the patient and parents about possible complications.

Koklear implantasyon: İnkomplet partisyon tip III üzerine olgu sunumu

Abstract

İnkomplet partisyon İP tip III anomalisi X-bağımlı deformite, İP tip III iç kulağın nadir bir malformasyonudur. Bu hastalarda koklear implant cerrahisi başarıyla uygulanabilir. Bu olgu sunumunda, İP tip III anomalisi ve şiddetli sensörinöral işitme kaybı olan hastalarda koklear implantasyon ile ilgili problemler tartışıldı. Koklear implantasyon bu hastalar için iyi bir tercihtir. Ancak İP tip III anomalisi diğer iç kulak anormalliklerine ek olarak bazı olağandışı riskler oluşturabilir. Dolayısıyla, cerrah bunları bilmeli ve hastayı ve ebeveynleri olası komplikasyonlar hakkında bilgilendirmeye hazır olmalıdır
