[The value of HRCT in predicting cerebrospinal fluid gusher during cochlear implantation].

To investigate the predictive value of temporal bone high-resolution CT（HRCT） multiplanar reconstruction（MPR） for cerebrospinal fluid（CSF） gusher during cochlear implantation in patients with inner ear malformation. The clinical data of 33 patients（36 ears） with inner ear malformation who underwent cochlear implantation were retrospectively analyzed. The predictive value of HRCT for cerebrospinal fluid gusher during cochlear implantation was evaluated. The width of the cochlear foramen（=0.024, =1.735） and the diameter of the inner auditory meatus（=0.022, =6.119） were independent risk factors for CSF gusher during cochlear implantation. The area under the curve（AUC） of cochlear foramen width in predicting intraoperative gusher was 0.851, the sensitivity was 93.33%, and the specificity was 61.90%. The AUC of the upper and lower diameter of the internal auditory canal for predicting intraoperative gusher was 0.848, the sensitivity was 80.00%, and the specificity was 80.95%. The AUC of cochlear foramen width combined with the upper and lower diameters of the internal auditory meatus for predicting intraoperative gusher was 0.930, the sensitivity was 80.00%, and the specificity was 95.24%. Based on temporal bone HRCT, the prediction model of cochlear foramen width combined with the upper and lower diameter of the internal auditory canal has crucial predictive value for the "gusher" during cochlear implantation in patients with inner ear malformation.
