Patients, who are bilaterally supplied with active middle ear implants, perform slightly better in sound localization tasks than when unilaterally aided or unaided.

Improvement of sound source localization abilities in patients bilaterally supplied with active middle ear implants.

To study the long-term evolution of speech and intelligence in a child with partial deafness and normal hearing in the low frequencies after sequentially receiving cochlear implants in both ears.

Auditory and cognitive development in a partially deaf child with bilateral electro-acoustic stimulation: a case study.

Incomplete electrode insertion is frequent when implanting ossified cochleae with conventional linear electrodes. If split electrode arrays (SEA) are used, this complication occurs less frequently resulting in improved audiological performance (AP). Additional implementation of electromagnetic navigation systems (EMNS) may add additional safety to this procedure and may further improve AP. However, previously performed SEA cochlea implantations rarely implemented EMNS. The few cases reported a laborious approach with customized, three-dimensional-printed microstereotactic headframes, which limited clinical feasibility. Moreover, no postoperative AP was reported. In this case report a more feasible approach, using a commercially available EMNS, is described and postoperative AP is reported.
