My pt with sensorial hearing loss due to localized labrythitis non met related, is going for tubes in her ears to allow direct instillation of corticosteroid drops, if this is not helpful or if the process is taking a very long recovery, a cochlear implant is on the table for discussion. I can’t emphasize how increadibly rare this is but these are some of the cases that as we go we are learing and sharing.
I so appreciate that Suzanne you shared that you have had patients have tubes placed and it was helpful, I was able to take that anecdote & clinical experience back to my team & my patient that other patients have been through this.
