Influence of electrode array stiffness and diameter on hearing in cochlear implanted guinea pig.
During cochlear implantation, electrode array translocation and trauma should be avoided to preserve residual hearing. The aim of our study was to evaluate the effect of physical parameters of the array on residual hearing and cochlear structures during insertion. Three array prototypes with differe...
