RESUMEN
Cochlear implant surgery is now recognized as the most effective intervention for patients with severe and profound sensorineural hearing loss. Due to various factors such as high altitude, low oxygen content, and ethnic differences in Tibet, the early hearing screening found that the incidence of neonatal hearing loss was significantly higher than in the mainland. With the great assistance of the China Disabled Persons' Federation, the first cochlear implant surgery was carried out in Tibet in 2011, and a total of 116 cases have been completed. This article aims to summarize the clinical experience of cochlear implant surgery in Tibet for ten years and retrospectively analyze the postoperative rehabilitation effect, so as to improve the understanding of cochlear implant surgery in plateau areas.
