case_images: Indeed, X-ray and CT scan performed on the same day confirmed that explantation had taken place with the electrode array lying in the EAC (Figures 1 and 2).
case_images: Coronal CT scan of the right temporal bone confirming explantation had taken place with the electrode array coiled up in the external auditory canal.

case_images: Embedding the electrode array, diseased tissue extended into the mastoid cavity through posterior tympanotomy (Figures 3 and 4).
case_images: The right external ear canal and mastoid cavity separated by the bony posterior canal wall W is shown with the explanted electrode array in situ. Cholesteatoma diseased tissue which is embedding a part of the explanted electrode array is seen in the middle/external ear E and mastoid M and is connected through the posterior tympanotomy (arrow).
