Dr. Toner implants a BONEBRIDGE (BCI 601) in a 9 year old boy suffering from single sided deafness. The device is implanted on the right (deaf) side and the BC-FMT (transducer) is placed in a position posterior to the external auditory canal and inferior to the temporal line.

Dr. Donnelly performs a bilateral VIBRANT SOUNDBRIDGE (VORP 503) implantation in an 11 year old male patient suffering from bilateral moderate conductive hearing loss due to meatal stenosis. Patient previously had been rehabilitated with percutaneous bone conduction devices, but due to multiple revision surgeries patient and his parents asked for an intact skin solution. Dr. Donnelly uses a surgical technique which sees the FMT (transducer) being placed on the head of the stapes. For the attachment of the FMT to the head of the stapes he uses a CliP-Coupler.

Dr. Aarno Dietz demonstrates a supra-meatal cochlear implant approach on local anaesthesia for an 84 year old female patient. For this case, FORM24 electrode array together with SYNCHRONY PIN implant are used for better control to complete electrode insertion through supra-meatus.

Dr. Frenzel implants a VIBRANT SOUNDBRIDGE (VORP 503) in a 8 year old female patient suffering from bilateral conductive hearing loss due to microtia. In this video he is implanting the left side, but the patient will also receive a VSB on the other side. Dr. Frenzel uses a surgical technique which sees the FMT (transducer) being placed on the head of the stapes. For the attachment of the FMT to the head of the stapes he uses a CliP-Coupler.

Prof. Dr. Gunesh Rajan demonstrates the cochlear implantation on a 42 year old female patient who previously has been diagnosed with meningitis. The early intervention allows possible management of fibrosis intra-cochlea and completion of electrode insertion using FLEX28 electrode array and SYNCHRONY implant.

Dr. Mewes implants a VIBRANT SOUNDBRIDGE (VORP 503) in a 67 year old female patient suffering from SNHL. She is unable to wear conventional hearing aids due to medical problems in her external auditory canal. Dr. Mewes uses a surgical technique which does not require a facial recess. For the attachment of the FMT (transducer) to the short process of the incus he uses an SP-Coupler.

Dr. Hempel implants a VIBRANT SOUNDBRIDGE (VORP 502) in an atresia child with a pure CHL. Middle ear is malformed and middle ear cavity is small. Since stapes is still present and footplate is mobile, Dr. Hempel uses a CliP-Coupler (on head of the stapes) in order to attach the FMT.

Prof. Parnes demonstrates a series of cochlear implantations on the right ear of an elder female patient who has bilaterally progressive hearing loss with CONCERTO FLEX28 electrode.

Prof. Parnes demonstrates a series of cochlear implantations on the left ear of an elder female patient who has bilaterally progressive hearing loss with CONCERTO FLEX28 electrode.

Prof. Sprinzl demonstrates the implantation of a SOUNDBRIDGE, the active middle ear implant VORP 502, in a 48 year old patient with a mixed hearing loss, who had previously undergone several middle ear surgeries due to cholesteatoma. Prof. Sprinzl uses a RW Vibroplasty where the FMT is placed, in combination with a RW-Coupler, onto the RW membrane.

Prof. Dr. Van de Heyning utilizes a CONCERTO PIN with FLEX28 electrode array to demonstrate structure preservation techniques and tight periosteum pocket for a 58 year old patient.

Prof. Müller implants a BONEBRIDGE active bone conduction implant in a 22 year old female patient suffering from MHL due to recurrent OM with effusion. Prof. Müller performs a placement in sinodural angle using 1mm BCI Lifts.

Prof. Dr. Tisch demonstrates the implantation of a SOUNDBRIDGE, the active middle ear implant VORP 502 in a 53 year old patient with a sensorineural hearing loss who was using hearing aids without success. Prof Tisch uses a Incus Vibroplasty where he couples the FMT onto the long process of the incus.

Dr. Kuzovkov demonstrates the implantation of a CONCERTO PIN with STANDARD electrode array in a 2 year old congenitally deaf patient with an attempt to provide the best pitch-matching outcome with full electrode insertion.

Prof. Dr. Sprinzl demonstrates the implantation of a SOUNDBRIDGE, the active middle ear implant VORP 502 in a 21 year old patient with a mixed hearing loss who had previously undergone several middle ear surgeries due to cholesteatoma. Prof. Sprinzl uses a RW Vibroplasty in a dry radical cavity where the FMT is placed directly onto the RW membrane.

Prof. Dr. Koitschev demonstrates the implantation of a BONEBRIDGE active bone conduction implant in an 11 year old patient with atresia/microtia and conductive hearing loss.

Prof. Usami demonstrates hearing preservation techniques in a 40 year old patient with near-normal residual hearing in the low frequencies. Prof. Usami utilizes the CONCERTO PIN with FLEX24 electrode array. FLEX24 is intended to support residual hearing to enable combined electric-acoustic stimulation (EAS). The endoscope is also used during the surgery.

Prof. Dr. Dai utilizes a CONCERTO and FLEX28 electrode array for structure preservation techniques for a 12 month old patient with residual low frequency hearing.
