Direction visualization of the stapedius muscle (SM) movements might be more reliable, but a safe access to the small SM is not defined. A new surgical planning tool for pre-operative evaluation of the accessibility to the stapedius muscle (SM) during a cochlear implantation (CI) via a retrofacial approach was now evaluated.\n<\/jats:p>\n              <\/jats:sec><jats:sec>\n                <jats:title>Methods<\/jats:title>\n                <jats:p>A surgical planning tool was developed in MATLAB using an image processing algorithm to evaluate drilling feasibility. A flat-panel computed tomography (CT) combining a rotational angiographic C-arm units with flat-panel detectors (Dyna-CT) was used. In total, 30 3D Dyna-CT-based temporal bone reconstructions were evaluated by automatized algorithms, generating a series of trajectories and comparing their feasibility and safety to reach the SM via a retrofacial approach. The predictability of the surgical planning tool results was tested in 5 patients.\n<\/jats:p>\n              <\/jats:sec><jats:sec>\n                <jats:title>Results<\/jats:title>\n                <jats:p>The surgical planning tool showed that a retrofacial access to the SM would be feasible in 25\/30 cases. Moreover, the evaluation of the predictability of the results obtained with the surgical planning tool conducted during 5 CI surgeries confirmed the results. Both the surgical planning tool and the results on SM accessibility via retrofacial approach during CI showed that this is safe and feasible only when the SM-exposed area was\u2009&gt;\u200925% of its total, the distance between the SM and the facial nerve was\u2009&gt;\u20090.8\u00a0mm, and the surgical corridor diameter was\u2009&gt;\u20093\u00a0mm.<\/jats:p>\n              <\/jats:sec><jats:sec>\n                <jats:title>Conclusion<\/jats:title>\n                <jats:p>The surgical planning tool seems to be useful for the pre-operative evaluation of the accessibility to the SM during a CI surgery via a retrofacial approach.
