title: Positioning of the receiver-stimulator for the CI-24M cochlear implant in infants.
abstract: A new cochlear implant (CI-24M) has recently been released by Cochlear Ltd. The shape and size of the receiver-stimulator differs from that of the CI-22M. Infants as young as one year of age are now receiving cochlear implants. We have examined the likely effect of skull growth following the implantation of a CI-24M cochlear implant in an infant of this age.
