Objective:To evaluate factors influencing the development of nonauditory percepts and facial nerve stimulation after cochlear implant (CI) activation.Study:Retrospective cohort study.Setting:Tertiary referral center.Patients:Over the course of 5 years, 433 consecutive patients were evaluated for CI and 518 ears were implanted. Of those, 497 ears had information regarding CI activation.Interventions:Lateral wall electrodes (LWE) or perimodiolar/mid-scalar electrodes (PME) were used during implantation.Primary Outcome Measure:Nonauditory percepts and facial nerve stimulation after activation of CI.Results:Among the 497 devices, which were activated at our institution, 357 (72%) had LWE while 140 (28%) patients had a PME. Of the patients with LWE, 49 (13.7%) patients experienced some form of nonauditory percept. In comparison, 11 (9.2%) patients with a PME had some form of nonauditory percept (p
