Cochlear implantation can cause vertigo and dizziness, affecting 16% of adults and 3% of children. Specific causes like perilymphatic fistula were identified, while others remain speculative.

Area of Science:

  • Otolaryngology
  • Neurosurgery
  • Audiology

Background:

  • Vertigo and dizziness are frequent complications following cochlear implantation.
  • Understanding their incidence and mechanisms is crucial for patient management.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To analyze the incidence, clinical features, and treatment of vertigo and dizziness after cochlear implantation.
  • To investigate potential underlying mechanisms for these common complications.

Main Methods:

  • A multicentric study collected data on 469 adult and pediatric cochlear implant recipients.
  • Clinical aspects, incidence, and treatment of postoperative vertigo and dizziness were analyzed.

Main Results:

  • Postoperative dizziness occurred in 16% of adults and 3% of children.

  • Perilymphatic fistula was identified as a specific cause in some cases.
  • Delayed vertigo mechanisms remain speculative, with endolymphatic hydrops suggested.

    • Conclusions:

    • Vertigo and dizziness are significant, though relatively infrequent, complications of cochlear implantation.
    • Further research is needed to elucidate the mechanisms of delayed vertigo.
    • Identifying specific causes like perilymphatic fistula aids targeted treatment.
