With rapid innovation in and expanding indications for cochlear implantation (CI), changes in the features of revision CI (RCI) appear to be emerging. This study aims to investigate the changes in RCI profile and discuss their clinical significance. Methods. A retrospective chart review was performed for all CIs performed at a tertiary medical institution between October 2001 and January 2023. The rate and reasons for RCI were evaluated and examined in terms of the manufacturer and device model. The Kaplan-Meier curve was used to examine the cumulative and device survival curves. In addition, the cumulative and device survivals were further analyzed based on age group, time period of primary CI, and manufacturer. Cox proportional hazards model was used to evaluate the association between RCI and manufacturers. Results. Among 1,430 CIs, 73 RCIs were conducted (5.1%). Device failure was the most common cause of RCI (40 of 73 RCIs [54.8%]), with an overall device failure rate of 2.8%, followed by flap-associated problems and migration (9 of 73 RCIs each [12.3%]). Flap retention problem appeared as a new cause in three cases (two CI 632 and one SYNCHRONY 2), and six electrode tip fold-over occurred (four CI 600 series and two CI 500 series). The 10-year overall cumulative and device survival rates were 93.4% and 95.8%, respectively. After excluding the models with recall issues, cumulative (P= 0.010) and device survival curves ( P= 0.001) revealed significant differences by manufacturer.","PeriodicalId":10318,"journal":{"name":"Clinical and Experimental Otorhinolaryngology","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":3.0,"publicationDate":"2023-12-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139150488","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Methods: The medical records of 77 patients with T1–2 primary parotid malignancies between May 2003 and March 2022 were retrospectively reviewed. Univariate and multivariate analyses were performed to evaluate the prognostic factors associated with overall survival, disease-free survival, and local and distant recurrences. Results: The average follow-up duration was 70.2 months (range,12–202 months). The 5-year overall and disease-free survival rates were 88.7% and 77.1%, respectively. Twenty-two patients underwent partial parotidectomy, and 55 underwent superficial or total parotidectomy. There were no significant differences in the disease recurrence ( p =0.320) and mortality rates ( p =0.884) of the partial and superficial or total parotidectomy groups. The mean duration of surgery was shorter and the overall complication rates were significantly lower for the partial group than for the superficial or total parotidectomy group ( p =0.049). Sixteen cases of recurrence occurred during the study period (20.8%). Univariate analyses showed that high-grade tumors ( p =0.006), lymphovascular invasion ( p =0.046), and regional lymph node metastasis ( p =0.010) were significant risk factors for disease recurrence. Multivariate analysis identified regional lymph node metastasis as an independent prognostic factor for disease recurrence ( p =0.027), and lymphovascular invasion as an independent prognostic factor for overall survival ( p =0.033).

The sense of olfaction may have been critical for human survival in prehistoric society, and although many believe its importance has diminished over time, it continues to have an impact on human interaction, bonding, and propagation of the species. Even if we are unaware of it, the sense of smell greatly affects our lives and is closely related to overall quality of life and health. Nonetheless, olfaction has been neglected from a scientific perspective compared to other senses. However, olfaction has recently received substantial attention since the loss of smell and taste has been noted as a key symptom of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) infection. Studies investigating olfaction loss in association with coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) have revealed that olfactory dysfunction can be both conductive and sensorineural, possibly causing structural changes in the brain. Olfactory training is an effective treatment for olfactory dysfunction, suggesting the reorganization of neural associations. A reduced ability to smell may also alert suspicion for neurodegenerative or psychiatric disorders.
