| Abstract | OBJECTIVE: Schwannomas may arise primarily within the inner ear, or invade the cochlea or labyrinth from the distal internal auditory canal through transmodiolar or transmacular extension, respectively. To date, very limited data exists regarding cochlear implant (CI) outcomes in this unique population. STUDY DESIGN: Retrospective case review. PATIENTS: Ten ears (nine patients) with inner ear schwannomas that underwent CI at a single tertiary referral center. INTERVENTION(S): Cochlear implantation. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURE(S): Surgical approach, CI performance. RESULTS: Ten ears (nine patients) were implanted with conventional CI arrays. Three cases had primary inner ear schwannomas, while seven were in patients with neurofibromatosis type 2 (NF2) having transmodiolar invasion of the inner ear from a vestibular schwannoma (VS). In all cases, intracochlear tumor was left in situ to preserve cochlear anatomy and a full electrode insertion was achieved. Use of a styleted electrode with late deployment aided advancement through the intracochlear tumor. In all cases, the ipsilateral internal auditory canal and inner ear could be visualized on postoperative magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) for tumor surveillance. Eight ears achieved good open-set word recognition (median, Consonant-Nucleus-Consonant [CNC] 50% [range, 28-88%], median, AzBio 73% [range, 60-91%]); two patients with NF2 and prolonged deafness (15 and 22 years) received limited benefit. CONCLUSIONS: Cochlear implantation in patients with inner ear schwannomas and an intact cochlear nerve is feasible. Leaving intracochlear schwannoma in situ preserves cochlear architecture and use of a styleted electrode may aid in achieving a full insertion when obstructing tumor is present. Postoperative MRI surveillance is still adequate after CI and a high percentage of patients achieve good open-set speech perception performance. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
