Cochlear implant in far advanced otosclerosis. Performance complications-long term results

Patients with far advanced otosclerosis demonstrated good performance with CI in 26/32 cases. In the cases with otosclerosis type 3, 5/6 patients had more difficulty in the insertion of electrodes, 1 of them with 2 electrodes within the IAC and leakage of LCR, and 5 of these recipients with tinnitus and poorer auditory outcome, with greater number of calibrations and adjustments inlevels T and C. Only two patient, 2/32 had FNS and were in otosclerosis type 3 with straight electrodes. None with perimodiolars electrodes.
