ItemSurgery for multielectrode cochlear implantsLehnhardt, E. ; Laszig, R. ; Webb, H. ; Franz, B. ; Pyman, B. ; Clark, Graeme M. ( 1987)For the surgery of the NUCLEUS Cochlear Implant (CI) in general anaesthesia we use a skin cut beginning at the bottom of the entrance to the outer ear canal, following the posterior circumference to a point nearly 12 o'clock. From here the incision runs superiorly to the tragus until two or three centimetres above the pinna base and in a wide smooth circle in direction to the occiput. The wide circle is necessary to get a distance of about 2 cm away from the package and also to guarantee the blood supply by the occipital artery and by the postauricular artery as well.

( 1987)The macroscopic and microscopic evaluation of the implanted and unimplanted temporal bones in a patient who had a cochlear prosthesis for 27 months prior to his death from cardiac disease has shown that the device is biocompatible, and does not lead to any significant adverse effects. The cause of deafness was meningitis.
