PU¶PubMed·Journal article·Cochlear implants·5w agoA Multicenter Study of Cochlear Implantation in Adults With Prolonged Unilateral DeafnessCochlear implantation can yield meaningful speech perception gains even after prolonged unilateral deafness, but device usage rates should be discussed during candidacy counseling as an outcome variable alongside speech scores.
PU¶PubMed·Journal article·Cochlear implants·6w agoSuccessful radiosurgery for a growing vestibular schwannoma following partial resection of an ipsilateral transfundal inner ear schwannoma and cochlear implantation: illustrative caseSingle illustrative case; no practice change warranted, but it confirms that radiosurgery can be considered for vestibular schwannoma management in cochlear implant recipients — awareness of this option is useful for multidisciplinary teams.＋Save
PU¶PubMed·Journal article·Cochlear implants·2mo agoEffect of different cochlear implantation timings on long-term language development outcomes of pediatric unilateral cochlear implant casesEarlier unilateral cochlear implantation timing is associated with better long-term language outcomes in children; audiologists and cochlear implant teams should continue to prioritize minimizing delays to surgery where clinically appropriate, though the retrospective design...＋Save
PU¶PubMed·Journal article·Cochlear implants·2mo agoImplicit auditory sensory memory and short-term memory for musical and verbal stimuli in children with cochlear implantsThis study provides mechanistic insight into auditory memory limitations in pediatric CI users but does not yet offer direct clinical protocols; audiologists should be aware that spectrally degraded signals may impair sequential auditory encoding, which could inform future aural...＋Save
PU¶PubMed·Journal article·Cochlear implants·4mo agoFailed cochlear implant followed by auditory brainstem implant in a patient with Mondini malformation and uncontrolled otomastoiditis: a case reportIn patients with Mondini malformation and uncontrolled chronic ear infection where cochlear implantation fails, auditory brainstem implantation is a viable salvage option — consistent with existing guidance but reinforced by this case.＋Save
