“…The reason is that two of the five patients had intracochlear new bone and fibrosis, and a partial insertion was performed. However, the functional results in our five patients are consistent with those reported by other investigators 7 . While the immediate anatomic and clinical results with our surgical technique have been satisfactory, follow‐up over a longer period must be maintained to validate its efficacy.…”

“…Previous studies have attempted to identify factors predicting implant performance, (Blamey et al, 1996;Deguine et al, 1993;Gantz et al, 1993;Makhdoum et al, 1997) but a clear pattern has not yet emerged. Duration of deafness prior to implantation is known to negatively inXuence outcome: the longer the period of deafness the more likely there is to be a poorer result from implantation.…”

Patients with bilateral and severe neurosensorial hypoacusia are candidates for cochlear implantation. Eventhough it's a relatively modern procedure, it has a very low rate of complications (5-10%), making it a safe surgery. The Cohen classification is currently used to measure and group the complications of this surgery, classifying them according to the moment in which they appear whether it's intraoperative or postoperative time.We present the case of a female patient who suffered the extrusion of the implant several months after the procedure. She was re-operated successfully, but she returned months later with a second extrusion of the same implant. We did not find any other report of this phenomenon in the revised literature. We present this case with pictures of the repair surgery and the patient's current condition. We also analyze possible causes of this cochlear implant rejection, citing both magnetomechanical and immunomediated factors.
