Minimally Invasive OSIA Bone Conduction Hearing Implant (MOSIA) in Children: How I do it?

The article discusses a novel minimally invasive technique called MOSIA (Minimally Invasive OSIA Bone Conduction Hearing Implant) for the placement of the Cochlear OSIA® 2 System in children under the age of 12. The technique involves a modified incision and biplane dissection to reduce postoperative pain, bleeding, and improve aesthetics. The study included seven children with aural atresia who underwent MOSIA, and the outcomes reported were postoperative pain, complications, and patient satisfaction. The authors found that MOSIA resulted in successful implantation with minimal complications and high patient satisfaction. [Extracted from the article]
