RESUMO
Acquired external auditory canal stenosis is a challenging condition to treat and can affect any age group. Post inflammatory lateral canal atresia is uncommon. This article focuses on a 2 year old child who presented with hearing loss with history of otitis externa. The lateral part of Auditory Canal was completely stenosed. He underwent debrider assisted endoscopic ear surgery and stenting, and a patent External Auditory Canal with normal hearing was achieved.
RESUMO
Cochlear implantation has become a standard tool of management of severe to profound hearing loss. Cochlear implantation in patients with chronic renal failure who are on hemodialysis are at greater risk of complications intraoperatively and postoperatively. Very few cases of cochlear implantation have been reported in the English literature so far following renal transplantation. Herein we report a case of cochlear implantation in a 37 year old lady with post renal transplant failure who is on maintenance hemodialysis.
