PURPOSE: Detection of complications during rehabilitation and postoperative follow-up after cochlear implantation is essential, especially in children and cognitively impaired patients. Electrode array migration can affect outcomes and must be detected early. Traditional radiographic methods, although effective, are costly and expose patients to radiation. This case report discusses the use of a previously published impedance-based model for cochlear implant array localization in a child with Aymé-Gripp syndrome.
METHODS: Impedance telemetry data and X-ray images were collected at the time of initial surgery and before and after the required revision surgery. The impedance-based model was used to estimate the insertion depth of the most basal cochlear implant electrode within the cochlea. The resulting estimates were compared with the electrode positions from radiographs to assess the accuracy and applicability of the model.
RESULTS: 20 months after implantation, the patient suddenly stopped tolerating the CI audio processor. Retrospectively, the impedance-based model revealed substantial electrode migration, which was confirmed by postoperative radiography.
CONCLUSION: The proposed model, which uses routine impedance telemetry data without radiation exposure, offers a cost-effective alternative to radiography. Early detection and intervention, particularly in complex cases, improves outcomes and reduces costs, highlighting the importance of objective monitoring.
