Our Experience in 576 Cases of Cochlear Implant Surgery by Veria Technique.
Indian Journal of Otolaryngology and Head and Neck Surgery 2023 September
OBJECTIVE: To study and analyse the result obtained in cochlear implantation by Veria technique and evaluate the incidence of surgical complications and their management.
METHOD: Between Jan 1, 2014 to Jan 1, 2019, 602 cochlear implantations by Veria technique were done out of which 576 patients were analysed retrospectively for the study. The age range was between 18 months and 60 years.
RESULT: All 576 patients were operated by Veria technique. Out of 576 patients, 57 (9.9%) had abnormal cochlear malformation. Cytomegalovirus (CMV) being the most common non genetic cause of congenital hearing loss accounting to 60%. The overall complication rate of 5.5% was observed in 576 implanted patients.
CONCLUSION: The analysis of the results shows that this method has certain advantages, which are: it is simple and therefore the learning curve is fast; it is safe for the facial nerve, as the drilling is precisely controlled by the special perforator; it produces minimal bone trauma and due fast healing, it permits early fitting a few days after operation; it can be used for very small children where the mastoid may have not been yet sufficiently developed.
