Cochlear Implant (Hearing loss treatment) Surgery by Dr. Sharad Maheswari


A cochlear implant is an electronic device that is used to produce hearing in damaged inner ear. Unlike hearing aids, which make sounds louder, cochlear implants do the work of damaged parts of the inner ear (cochlea) to provide sound signals to the brain.

Cochlear implants are invented to cure severally damaged and children who get little or no benefit from hearing aids. Even individuals with severe or profound "nerve deafness" may be able to benefit from cochlear implants.

A cochlear implant takes sounds from the outer area and then converts it and send it near to auditory nerve.These electric currents activate the nerve, which then sends a signal to the brain. The brain learns to recognize this signal and the person experiences this as "hearing".

The cochlear implant makes a situation of natural hearing where current is created by sound that stimulates the auditory nerves. However, the result is not the same as normal hearing.

This surgery is also known as bandaid, keyhole, and minimally invasive surgery or MIS. It is performed using a laparoscope, a slim tubular instrument that may have a camera for the surgeon to see how far endometriosis has affected the body.

A laparoscopic procedure is initially advised to get a more accurate diagnosis. Treatment can be performed the same time if the surgeon finds any endometriosis implants that may be the reason for suffering and fertility problems. If the surgeon finds an endometriosis cyst, it will usually be taken out as well, even those these cysts are rarely cancerous. Laparoscopic surgery is performed under general anesthesia.

Treatment for enlarged tonsils and adenoids (Adenoidectomy) - Treatment of snoring in kids




Tonsils and adenoids are the body’s first line of defense as part of the immune system. They sample bacteria and viruses that enter the body through the mouth or nose, but they sometimes become infected. At times, they become more of a liability than an asset and may even cause airway obstruction or repeated bacterial infections.

The two most common problems affecting the tonsils and adenoids are recurrent infections of the nose and throat, and significant enlargement that cause nasal obstruction and/or breathing, swallowing, and sleep problems.


The adenoids produce antibodies, or white blood cells, that help fight infections. Typically, the adenoids shrink during adolescence and may disappear by adulthood.
Adenoid removal, also called an adenoidectomy, is a common surgery to remove the adenoids. The adenoids are glands located in the roof of the mouth, behind the soft palate where the nose connects to the throat.


Doctors often perform adenoid removals and tonsillectomies — removal of the tonsils — together. Chronic throat and respiratory infections often cause inflammation and infection in both glands.
