Brain MRI identified a 22\u2009mm tumor within the left jugular foramen and hypoglossal canal involving the cochlear aqueduct. Patient underwent stereotactic radiosurgery (SRS), with the tumor receiving 15\u2009Gy in a single fraction, followed by a left CI with full electrode insertion without resistance. Main outcome measures included audiometric outcomes pre\u2010 and post\u2010CI, including PTA and AzBio sentence scores in quiet, and MRI imaging of the tumor pre\u2010 and post\u2010SRS.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Results<\/jats:title><jats:p>Upon activation of CI, PTA had improved to 42\u2009dB with AzBio sentence score of 50% in quiet within 1\u2009month after activation. One\u2010year follow\u2010up revealed PTA of 38\u2009dB and AzBio sentence score of 29% in quiet. Datalogging at 1\u2009month after CI activation revealed 11.4\u2009h per day of CI use at 1\u2009month and 5.5\u2009h per day at 1\u2009year after CI activation. Patient reported that aural rehabilitation exercises were stopped during this time period. Post\u2010SRS imaging revealed minimal growth of the jugular foramen tumor.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Conclusion<\/jats:title><jats:p>This report demonstrates that CI for asymmetric sensorineural hearing loss or single\u2010sided deafness related to cochlear aqueduct obstruction from jugular foramen pathology yields outcomes similar to conventional CI recipients. Imaging surveillance of the tumor remains feasible for tumors treated with SRS. This case report provides valuable insight and offers guidance for surgeons and patients facing a similar clinical scenario.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Level of Evidence<\/jats:title><jats:p>4.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1002\/lio2.70171","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2025,8,27]],"date-time":"2025-08-27T11:29:56Z","timestamp":1756294196000},"update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1002\/crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":0,"title":["Cochlear Implantation for Sensorineural Hearing Loss Related to Cochlear Aqueduct Obstruction by a Jugular Foramen Tumor"],"prefix":"10.1002","volume":"10","author":[{"given":"Nicole","family":"Ewer","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"University of Utah School of Medicine  Salt Lake City Utah USA"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Mana","family":"Espahbodi","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Otolaryngology \u2013 Head and Neck Surgery University of Utah  Salt Lake City Utah USA"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Kathryn","family":"Johnson","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Audiology University of Utah  Salt Lake City Utah USA"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"suffix":"III","given":"Richard H.","family":"Wiggins","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Radiology and Imaging Services University of Utah  Salt Lake City Utah USA"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-9601-2628","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Richard K.","family":"Gurgel","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Otolaryngology \u2013 Head and Neck Surgery University of Utah  Salt Lake City Utah USA"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-6580-3053","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Neil S.","family":"Patel","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Otolaryngology \u2013 Head and Neck Surgery University of Utah  Salt Lake City Utah USA"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"311","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2025,8,27]]},"reference":[{"key":"e_1_2_7_2_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.3171\/foc.2004.17.2.5"},{"key":"e_1_2_7_3_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1007\/s00405\u2010003\u20100666\u2010z"},{"key":"e_1_2_7_4_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1002\/lary.27343"},{"key":"e_1_2_7_5_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1097\/MAO.0000000000002346"},{"key":"e_1_2_7_6_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/s0378\u20105955(97)00017\u20108"},{"key":"e_1_2_7_7_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.3171\/2017.10.JNS17764"},{"key":"e_1_2_7_8_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1097\/MAO.0000000000001636"},{"key":"e_1_2_7_9_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1080\/14670100.2019.1662161"},{"key":"e_1_2_7_10_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1007\/s00405\u2010008\u20100680\u20102"},{"key":"e_1_2_7_11_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.3109\/14992027.2015.1052105"},{"key":"e_1_2_7_12_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1177\/000348945206100311"},{"key":"e_1_2_7_13_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.3109\/00016487409124591"}],"container-title":["Laryngoscope Investigative Otolaryngology"],"original-title":[],"language":"en","link":[{"URL":"https:\/\/onlinelibrary.wiley.com\/doi\/pdf\/10.1002\/lio2.70171","content-type":"unspecified","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"similarity-checking"}],"deposited":{"date-parts":[[2025,8,29]],"date-time":"2025-08-29T04:45:53Z","timestamp":1756442753000},"score":1,"resource":{"primary":{"URL":"https:\/\/onlinelibrary.wiley.com\/doi\/10.1002\/lio2.70171"}},"subtitle":[],"short-title":[],"issued":{"date-parts":[[2025,8]]},"references-count":12,"journal-issue":{"issue":"4","published-print":{"date-parts":[[2025,8]]}},"alternative-id":["10.1002\/lio2.70171"],"URL":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1002\/lio2.70171","archive":["Portico"],"relation":{},"ISSN":["2378-8038","2378-8038"],"issn-type":[{"type":"print","value":"2378-8038"},{"type":"electronic","value":"2378-8038"}],"subject":[],"published":{"date-parts":[[2025,8]]},"assertion":[{"value":"2024-12-18","order":0,"name":"received","label":"Received","group":{"name":"publication_history","label":"Publication History"}},{"value":"2025-05-11","order":2,"name":"accepted","label":"Accepted","group":{"name":"publication_history","label":"Publication History"}},{"value":"2025-08-27","order":3,"name":"published","label":"Published","group":{"name":"publication_history","label":"Publication History"}}],"article-number":"e70171"}}
