Abstract

The cochlear implantation (CI) surgical technique for common cavity deformity (CCD) patients is unusual because of the special anatomical features and surgeons should be careful with some complications. This chapter mainly introduces the most common complications as well as the relative treatment after CI surgery of CCD patients, such as cerebrospinal fluid gusher, facial nerve injury, facial nerve stimulation, electrode displacement, and vestibular stimulation.
