      common cavity deformity.

AB  - OBJECTIVES/HYPOTHESIS: Cochlear implantation for patients with common cavity 
      deformity (CCD) can be difficult, with a higher incidence of intra- and 
      postoperative complications; outcomes with CCD patients are also highly variable. 
      In this study, surgical time was compared between the traditional facial recess 
      approach (TFRA) and the transmastoid slotted labyrinthotomy approach (TSLA). 
      Audiological outcomes and the benefit of using customized electrode arrays for 
      CCD patients are also discussed. STUDY DESIGN: Retrospective review of 13 
      cochlear implant (CI) patients with CCD. METHODS: Six patients were implanted 
      with the TFRA using traditional electrodes, and seven patients were implanted 
      with the TSLA using customized electrodes. Intra- and postoperative complications 
      were reviewed. Audiological outcomes were measured 3 months to 2 years after CI 
      activation. RESULTS: The mean surgical time for TSLA group was nearly half as 
      long as for the TRFA group (P < .05). Although mean audiological outcomes were 
      better for the TSLA group, there was no significant difference between groups 
      (P > .05). CONCLUSIONS: For CCD patients, TSLA for cochlear implantation is 
      recommended due to shortened surgical time; customized electrode arrays may be 
      additionally advantageous in terms of audiological outcomes. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE:
