This study aimed to evaluate migration of the receiver-stimulator after cochlear implantation using the subperiosteal pocket technique.
A prospective clinical study was performed of 32 paediatric patients (aged between 12 months and 8 years; mean ± standard deviation, 28 ± 19 months) who underwent cochlear implantation in tertiary referral centres. The degree of migration was evaluated using measurements between the receiver-stimulator and selected reference points: the lateral canthus, tragus and mastoid tip. All distances were measured during and six months after surgery.
No receiver-stimulator migration was observed when using the subperiosteal pocket technique.
Concerns about implant migration in the subperiosteal pocket technique are unwarranted: this is a safe technique to use for cochlear implantation.
本研究旨在评估采用骨膜下袋技术进行人工耳蜗植入后接收器-刺激器的移位情况。
对在三级转诊中心接受人工耳蜗植入的32例儿科患者(年龄在12个月至8岁之间;平均±标准差,28±19个月)进行了一项前瞻性临床研究。使用接收器-刺激器与选定参考点(外眦、耳屏和乳突尖)之间的测量值来评估移位程度。所有距离均在术后及术后六个月测量。
采用骨膜下袋技术时未观察到接收器-刺激器移位。
对骨膜下袋技术中植入物移位的担忧是没有必要的:这是一种用于人工耳蜗植入的安全技术。
