BACKGROUND: Results after cochlear implant surgery may be complicated by postoperative facial nerve stimulation. Aim of the study presented was to evaluate postoperative results in implanting the straight Nucleus electrode array and the preformed Contour array in patients with deafness due to cochlear otosclerosis.
METHODS: A retrospective analysis of intra- and postoperative reports of all patients with cochlear otosclerosis was carried out. Results with the Nucleus straight electrode array and the Contour array were compared with regard to postoperative facial nerve stimulation.
RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: None of the Contour patients (n = 7) presented with postoperative facial nerve stimulation. This is in contrast to the majority (4 of 6) of patients being implanted with the straight electrode array. Our results indicate that the use of the Contour array is advantageous in patients being at risk for facial nerve stimulation. In addition intraoperative reports suggest a more reliable insertion of the Contour electrode array in cochlear otosclerosis with partial obliteration.
