Vestibular function prior to cochlear implantation in patients with non-syndromic hearing loss caused by CDH23 mutations: a retrospective case series

Key Points

To evaluate vestibular function before cochlear implantation in patients with non-syndromic hearing loss due to CDH23 mutations.
Retrospective case series analysis of patients with CDH23-related non-syndromic deafness
Assessment of vestibular function prior to cochlear implantation
More than half of the patients exhibited unilateral vestibular dysfunction prior to surgery
Findings indicate the potential importance of preoperative vestibular assessments

Abstract

More than half of patients with CDH23-related non-syndromic deafness exhibited unilateral vestibular dysfunction prior to cochlear implantation, suggesting that preoperative vestibular assessment may be clinically relevant in this population.
