Postoperative CT scans were performed in patients with abnormal postoperation X\u2010ray, or if there were abnormal surgical findings encountered during insertion which raised the suspicion for suboptimal placement.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Results<\/jats:title><jats:p>A total of 195 patients with a mean age of 64.8\u2009\u00b1\u200918.9 years were included. XRs were performed in 188 patients and others had CT scan from the beginning. Only 2 out of 188 patients had abnormal findings on XR, which showed malposition of the electrode in one patient and a tip fold over and incomplete insertion in the other one. Both patients with abnormal findings had labyrinthitis ossificans. The patient with tip fold over ultimately underwent re\u2010implantation. Another patient with incomplete insertion had required extended basal turn drilling during implantation, and no additional measures were taken.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Conclusion<\/jats:title><jats:p>Routine XR findings did not provide the reason for additional intervention, and its benefit for patients without demonstrable cochlear abnormalities was minimal. Post\u2010op XR can be informative in selected high risk patients, but CT imaging is a reasonable alternative to better define anatomic array location in patients particularly at risk.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1002\/ohn.1144","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2025,3,12]],"date-time":"2025-03-12T04:58:14Z","timestamp":1741755494000},"page":"1682-1691","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1002\/crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":1,"title":["The
