    Abstract:
    This is a review of 183 children who have been implanted in various centers throughout the United States and Canada. There is a description of the surgical technical differences in the child as compared to an adult. The results discussed are the etiology of deafness, the years of profound deafness, the condition of the cochlea at the time of surgery, and the audiological results. As of January 1, 1986, the cochlear implant program in children had been functioning for three years. The results have been good. The goals of the children's implant program and future recommendations are listed.
