Robot-assisted Cochlear Implant Electrode Array Insertion in Adults: A Comparative Study With Manual Insertion

alexandrossfakianakis shared this article with you from Inoreader
Objective: To describe the first cochlear array insertions using a robot-assisted technique, with different types of straight or precurved electrode arrays, compared with arrays manually inserted into the cochlea. Study Design: Retrospective review. Setting: Tertiary otologic center. Patients: Twenty cochlear implantations in the robot-assisted group and 40 in the manually inserted group. Interventions: Cochlear implantations using a robot-assisted technique (RobOtol) with straight (eight Cochlear CI522/622, and eight Advanced Bionics Hifocus Slim J) or precurved (four Advanced Bionics Hifocus Mid-Scala) matched to manual cochlear implantations. Three-dimensional reconstruction images of the basilar membrane and the electrode array were obtained from pre- and postimplantation computed tomography. Main Outcome Measures: Rate and localization of scalar translocations. Results: For straight electrode arrays, scalar translocations occurred in 19% (3/16) of the robot-assisted group and 31% (10/32) of the manually inserted group. Considering the number of translocated electrodes, this was lower in the robot-assisted group (7%) than in the manually inserted group (16%) (p
