Of 20 children who underwent cochlear implantation for profound sensorineural hearing loss
secondary to bacterial meningitis, 14 had round-window and cochlear ossification at …

Labyrinthine ossification can be found in a high percentage of patients with profound
deafness resulting from bacterial meningitis. Radiographic evidence of ossification can be …

A case is described of a child of 2.6 years who developed total deafness after acute bacterial
meningitis. Rapid obliteration of the cochleas due to osteoneogenesis led to limited cochlear …

In a series of six cochlear-implant candidates, including three small children, labyrinthine
ossification in various stages of development was observed at CT. In four of the candidates …

Authors report on a so far undescribed bilateral inner ear malformation with congenital

Objective: This study aimed to assess the pathologic processes that result in ossification of
the cochlear lumen after bacterial meningitis. Study Design: The study design was a …

Bacterial meningitis is a common cause of profound deafness and, hence, a common cause
