Abstract
We present a quality analysis of 10 patients with an individual treatment trial for a simultaneous or consecutive cochlea implantation after translabyrinthine removal of a neurinoma at the cerebellopontine angle. The results show that most of the patients benefit from the cochlea implantation after unilateral deafness. Through a careful surgical preparation technique at the inner ear canal and its surroundings the morphological and functional integrity of the neurovascular structures can be guaranteed.
