['Proper intracochlear placement of cochlear implant electrode arrays is believed to be important for optimum speech perception results. However, objective tests of cochlear implant function typically provide little or no information about the intracochlear placement of the array. We report the results for a variety of objective tests, including averaged electrode voltage (AEV) measurements, in a patient where the electrode array had folded up on itself during insertion.', 'To determine whether any of the objective measures provided evidence of incorrect electrode placement.', 'Objective test data are reported for a patient with an incorrectly positioned electrode array, prior to and following reimplantation, and compared to data obtained in 42 patients with normal insertions.', 'One patient with an incorrectly placed electrode array, prior to and following reimplantation, and a sample of 42 implant recipients with correct insertions.', 'The patient with the malpositioned electrode array was explanted and reimplanted. The results for the first and the second implant, with regards to objective test results, are compared. The results are also compared to the data obtained on 42 implant recipients with normal insertions.', 'The objective test data (primarily AEV data) are compared with AEV results obtained in 42 patients with normal electrode insertions.'] Do objective findings with malpositioning of a nucleus 24RE ( CA ) cochlear implant?
