Area of Science:

  • Otolaryngology
  • Neurosurgery
  • Dermatology

Background:

  • Cochlear implantation effectively rehabilitates severe to profound sensorineural hearing loss.
  • Surgical site infections are a known complication, particularly with pre-existing conditions.
  • Psoriasis is an inflammatory condition that may increase infection risk.

Observation:

  • Two cases of cochlear implantation in patients with psoriasis are presented.
  • The study focuses on the potential for surgical site infections in this patient group.

Findings:

  • Patients with psoriasis undergoing cochlear implantation may have a higher risk of surgical site infections.
  • Proactive infection control strategies are crucial for this population.
