In this article, we present four patients who underwent cochlear implantation due to far advanced otosclerosis. Preoperative evaluations, intraoperative findings, complications, and postoperative benefits were analyzed. Cochlear implantation is a treatment option providing excellent audiological results for rehabilitation of patients with far advanced otosclerosis. However, facial nerve stimulation after cochlear implantation is observed more frequently in patients with otosclerosis. Also, caution should be paid in patients with otosclerosis in terms of cochlear ossification and inconsistent results.

Anahtar Kelimeler

Cochlear implant, facial nerve stimulation, ossification, otosclerosis

Aşırı ilerlemiş otosklerozda koklear implantasyon: Dört olguluk seri

Öz

Bu yazıda aşırı ilerlemiş otoskleroz nedeniyle koklear implantasyon uygulanan dört hasta sunuldu. Ameliyat öncesi değerlendirmeler, ameliyat sırasındaki bulgular, komplikasyonlar ve ameliyat sonrası faydalar incelendi. Koklear implantasyon aşırı ilerlemiş otosklerozlu hastaların rehabilitasyonunda mükemmel işitsel sonuçlar sunan bir tedavi seçeneğidir. Fakat koklaer implantasyon sonrası fasiyal sinir uyarımı otosklerozlu hastalarda daha sık görülmektedir. Ayrıca, otosklerozlu hastalarda koklear ossifikasyon ve istikrarsız sonuçlar açısından da dikkatli olunmalıdır

Anahtar Kelimeler

Koklear implant, fasiyal sinir uyarımı, ossifikasyon, otoskleroz
