This study aimed to present a case of an extruded Advanced Bionics positioner, with the goal of educating a new generation of otologic surgeons on management of the delayed complications associated with this cochlear implant model.
Retrospective case report in a pediatric patient.
We observed the extrusion of an Advanced Bionics positioner 10 years after cochlear implantation.
Awareness of the Advanced Bionics positioner as a component of certain historical models of cochlear implants is important as the delayed complications associated with this model may still be encountered. Management of an extruded positioner should include precautions against infectious complications, repair of the defect, and assessment of the patient's performance with the cochlear implant.
本研究旨在呈现一例先进生物科技(Advanced Bionics)定位器脱出的病例,目的是让新一代耳科外科医生了解与这种人工耳蜗模型相关的延迟并发症的处理方法。
对一名儿科患者的回顾性病例报告。
我们观察到在人工耳蜗植入10年后,先进生物科技定位器发生了脱出。
认识到先进生物科技定位器是某些早期人工耳蜗模型的一个部件很重要,因为仍可能遇到与该模型相关的延迟并发症。定位器脱出的处理应包括预防感染并发症、修复缺损以及评估患者使用人工耳蜗的表现。
