    Microangiopathy of the inner ear, deafness, and cochlear implantation in a patient with Susac syndrome
    (2011) BITTENCOURT, Aline Gomes; SANTOS, Andrea Felice Dos; GOFFI-GOMEZ, Maria Valeria Schmidt; KUTSCHER, Kellen; TSUJI, Robinson Koji; BRITO, Rubens De; BENTO, Ricardo Ferreira
    Conclusion: The cochlear implant was beneficial as an attempt to restore hearing and improve communication abilities in this patient with profound sensorineural hearing loss secondary to Susac syndrome. Objective: To report the audiological outcomes of cochlear implantation (CI) in a young woman with Susac syndrome after a 6-month follow-up period. Susac syndrome is a rare disorder. It is clinically characterized by a typical triad of sensorineural deafness, encephalopathy, and visual defect, due to microangiopathy involving the brain, inner ear, and retina. Methods: This was a retrospective review of a case at a tertiary referral center. After diagnosis, the patient was evaluated by a multidisciplinary team and received a cochlear implant in her right ear. Results: The patient achieved 100% open-set sentence recognition in noise conditions and 92% monosyllable and 68% medial consonant recognition in quiet conditions after 6 months of implant use. She reported the use of the telephone 3 months after activation.

    Cochlear Implants in Patients with Fluctuant or Progressive Hearing Loss on the Better Ear
    (2021) MANGABEIRA-ALBERNAZ, Pedro Luiz; MALERBI, Andrea Felice dos Santos
    Introduction Cochlear implants have been proposed for cases of unilateral hearing loss, especially in patients with tinnitus impairment. Several studies have shown that they result in definite improvement of sound localization and speech understanding, both in quiet and noisy environments. On the other hand, there are few references regarding cochlear implants in patients whose better ears present hearing loss. Objective To report the audiological outcomes of three patients with unilateral deafness, in whom the better ears presented hearing losses, submitted to cochlear implants. Methods Three patients with unilateral profound hearing loss underwent a cochlear implant performed by the same surgeon. Results The patients' data are presented in detail. Conclusion The indications for cochlear implants are becomingmore diverse with the expansion of clinical experience and the observation that they definitely help patients with special hearing problems.
