Abstract
As with any operation, problems and complications may arise with cochlear implant surgery. These may be associated with the scalp flap, mastoid, facial recess, middle ear, or scala tympani. We describe a number of these potential problems and suggest means of avoiding or dealing with them. With careful planning and meticulous attention to detail, complications associated with cochlear implant surgery can be minimized.Keywords
