520 3# - SUMMARY, ETC.
Summary, etc Abstract<br/>Conclusion: Patients with post-lingual deafness should not be excluded from cochlear implantation (CI) on the basis of duration<br/>of deafness. We found that the prognosis was favorable in patients who developed deafness after adolescence, even in those with<br/>extremely long-term deafness. Objectives: CI is an effective treatment for post-lingual deafness. However, it remains unclear<br/>whether CI would benefit patients with extremely long-term deafness. We evaluated the auditory performance after CI of<br/>patients who had been deaf for more than 30 years. Methods: The study enrolled 81 adults with post-lingual deafness. Speech<br/>perception tests were performed preoperatively and 12 months postoperatively, and factors affecting the postoperative auditory<br/>performance were investigated. The subjects were divided into groups according to the duration of deafness and the<br/>postoperative speech perception scores were compared. Results: A marked improvement in the open-set speech perception<br/>scores (mono/disyllabic words and sentences) after implantation was seen in all groups, and no significant difference in the<br/>improvement in speech perception scores was observed among the groups. Age at onset of deafness was closely related to the<br/>postoperative performance, and patients who had lost their hearing before adolescence performed poorly.
