Abstract | Cochlear implants allow the restoration of hearing function in patients with severe to profound sensorineural hearing loss through the direct stimulation of the auditory nerve by an electrode array inserted into the inner ear. Typically, access to the cochlea is gained through the performance of a mastoidectomy, which involves the removal of a large portion of the mastoid bone, allowing the surgeon to visualize and protect vital structures within the mastoid during milling. Once access to the cochlea has been achieved, the surgeon may insert the electrode through the round window, or alternatively through an |
