Area of Science:

  • Neurosurgery
  • Otolaryngology
  • Biomedical Engineering

Background:

  • Auditory brainstem implants (ABIs) were initially for neurofibromatosis type 2 (NF2) patients.
  • ABIs are now used for congenital deafness with cochlear issues and other conditions.
  • The number of ABI centers and interest in the procedure is growing.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To highlight key issues in developing and maintaining successful Auditory Brainstem Implant (ABI) programs.
  • To provide criteria for patient selection and program development.
  • To ensure patient best interests are prioritized in ABI implantation.

Main Methods:

  • A review of the current literature was performed.
  • Analysis of disease processes, risk/benefit ratios, evidence levels, and FDA approvals was conducted.
  • Consideration of different patient categories for ABI implantation.

Main Results:

  • Disease processes, risk/benefit analyses, evidence, and FDA approvals vary across patient groups considered for ABIs.
  • The long-term benefits, especially in pediatric patients, require further elucidation and remain controversial.
  • Limited publications were available for review.

Conclusions:

  • Suggested criteria for developing and sustaining successful ABI programs for NF2 patients, postlingually deafened adults, and congenitally deaf children.
  • Emphasized the need for careful program development due to the risks associated with ABI placement.
  • Highlighted the importance of tailored approaches for different patient populations.
