House 3M Cochlear Implant: Surgical Considerations

Abstract
The cochlear implant is now available widely as a treatment alternative for carefully selected patients with profound sensorineural deafness for whom other treatments or prostheses have been unsuccessful. This paper discusses the surgical techniques for implantation of the House 3M cochlear implant. There have been no serious surgical complications and only a few postoperative problems that were remedied satisfactorily. The surgical procedure allows replacement of a failed device or upgrading of the device as improvements become available in the future.
