Ipsilateral cochlear implantation in patients with sporadic vestibular schwannoma in the only or best hearing ear and in patients with NF2

Abstract: The aim of this study was to evaluate the cochlear implant (CI) performances in neurofibromatosis type 2 (NF2) patients with bilateral vestibular schwannoma (VS) and in patients with sporadic VS in the only or better hearing ear. All patients with bilateral VS or sporadic VS in the only or better hearing ear who underwent cochlear implantation, either simultaneous to VS surgery or staged after treatment for VS, in the tumor side were chosen for the study. Postimplantation audiometric scores (sound detection, c… Show more

“…However, their results do not reach those of standard postlingually deaf patients in the majority of cases [Arriaga and Marks, 1995;Aristegui and Denia, 2005;Zannetti et al, 2008;Di Lella et al, 2013;Lassaletta et al, 2016]. In addition, little is known about their benefits in the presence of normal contralateral hearing.…”

“…Cochlear implantation has been previously described for the hearing rehabilitation of patients with NF-2 and sporadic VS in the only or better hearing ear [Lustig et al, 2006;Odat et al, 2011;Carlson et al, 2012;Di Lella et al, 2013;Lloyd et al, 2014;Aristegui and Denia, 2015;Lassaletta et al, 2016]. However, little is known about their benefits in the presence of normal contralateral hearing after VS resection.…”
