Popis:	In a prospective study by Cohen et al,3 the superiority of multi channel cochlear implant patient performance over single-channel cochlear implant performance was demonstrated. The Ineraid system described in this paper includes a percutaneous pedestal which has had a satisfactory patient experience. Only one pedestal removal has been necessary because of specific pedestal problems. Other less serious pedestal problems decrease in frequency with increasing time post-implantation. The auditory performance indicates significant commu nication skills improvement in patients with multichannel cochlear implants.
