The influence of electrode array design, scalar dislocation and insertion technique on postoperative vertigo in CI surgery – a prospective study
Both postoperative vertigo occurrence and electrode array dislocation rates have significantly decreased due to the optimized atraumatic electrode array design and improved surgical insertion techniques. Neither dislocation nor cochleostomy appeared to induce vertigo but the sample size was too small to draw definitive conclusions.
