Abstract
Introduction
Cochlear implant (CI) is the standard of care for most cases of severe-to-profound hearing loss. Different electrodes are available for CI.
Objective
To compare the lateral wall, midscala, and perimodiolar electrodes in CI surgery in terms of trauma to the cochlea and hearing preservation (if there is residual hearing).
