Abstract
The incidence of bilateral temporal bone fractures are reported in 9% to 20%. Otic capsule violating temporal bone fractures are highly related to sensorineural hearing loss, when compared with otic capsule sparing fractures. Patients with bilateral temporal bone fractures and profound bilateral sensorineural hearing loss may benefit from cochlear implantation. We present the case of a 44-year-old male with bilateral profound sensorineural hearing loss caused by bilateral temporal bone fractures who achieved successful auditory rehabilitation after a cochlear implantation.
