Cochlear implantation in children with an asymmetrical hearing loss is now becoming more recognized as an appropriate and beneficial treatment option. In our programme, we have been implanting children with asymmetrical hearing loss since 2008. Asymmetrical hearing loss is defined as hearing loss when one ear meets criteria for cochlear implantation and the other ear has better hearing and receives benefit from a hearing aid. There is a wide range of asymmetrical hearing loss: single-sided deafness is the end of the spectrum. Amplification in asymmetrical hearing loss is usually difficult, it is often not possible to adequately aid the poorer ear; therefore patients often experience compromised hearing with adequate aiding of their better ear only. The impact of hearing with one ear on speech development, education, and employment is significant.
对于不对称听力损失的儿童，现在越来越多地认识到人工耳蜗植入是一种合适且有益的治疗选择。在我们的项目中，自2008年以来一直在为不对称听力损失的儿童植入人工耳蜗。不对称听力损失被定义为一只耳朵符合人工耳蜗植入标准而另一只耳朵听力较好且使用助听器有益时的听力损失。不对称听力损失的范围很广：单侧耳聋是其极端情况。不对称听力损失的放大通常很困难，往往无法充分帮助听力较差的耳朵；因此，患者通常仅在较好耳朵得到充分助听的情况下仍会经历听力受损。单耳听力对言语发展、教育和就业的影响很大。
