Abstract | CONCLUSION: OBJECTIVE: METHODS: This was a retrospective review of a case at a tertiary referral center. After diagnosis, the patient was evaluated by a multidisciplinary team and received a cochlear implant in her right ear. RESULTS: The patient achieved 100% open-set sentence recognition in noise conditions and 92% monosyllable and 68% medial consonant recognition in quiet conditions after 6 months of implant use. She reported the use of the telephone 3 months after activation.
