背景。人工耳蜗磁体脱位是一种少见但公认的人工耳蜗磁共振成像并发症。病例报告。本文报告一例人工耳蜗磁体脱位，尽管头部包扎。患者随后在全身麻醉下接受了内镜下磁铁的重新定位。术中对人工耳蜗系统进行了测试，证实其功能正常。患者随访良好，小创面愈合良好，无并发症。本报告提出内窥镜技术作为一种可行的微创手术方法来解决人工耳蜗磁铁脱位。
Background. Dislocation of the cochlear implant magnet is an uncommon but recognised complication of magnetic resonance imaging in a patient with a cochlear implant.Case report. This paper reports a case of cochlear implant magnet dislocation despite head bandaging. The patient subsequently underwent endoscopic repositioning of the magnet under general anaesthesia. The cochlear implant system was tested intra-operatively and confirmed to be functioning. The patient was well at follow up and the small wound healed well with no complications.Conclusion. This report presents the endoscopic technique as a viable minimally invasive surgical approach to address cochlear implant magnet dislocation.
