New Hearing Device in testing for those who have some natural hearing left
« on: April 18, 2008, 07:34:34 am »
Hi,

I just read an article about new hearing device being tested that is for those who have some natural hearing but it is not enough in life. Technology moves forward!

Right side AN (6x3x3 cm) removed in 1988 by Drs. Benjamin & Cohen at NYU (16 hrs); nerves involved III - XII.
Regrowth at the brainstem 2.5 cm removed by Dr.Shahinian in 4 hrs at SBI (hopefully, this time forever); nerves involved IV - X with VIII missing. No facial or swallowing issues.
