  • Title: Electrically evoked auditory brainstem response by direct electrical stimulation to the cochlear nerve in acoustic neuroma patients.
    Author: Tanaka H, Komatsuzaki A, Okuno H.
    Journal: ORL J Otorhinolaryngol Relat Spec; 1997; 59(2):67-72. PubMed ID: 9166874.
    Abstract:
    The electrically evoked auditory brainstem response (EABR) was recorded by direct electrical stimulation of the cochlear nerve in 8 acoustic neuroma patients. The EABR by electrical stimulation of the cochlear nerve at the fundus of the internal auditory canal was almost similar to those previously reported from cochlear implant patients in waveform morphology and wave latencies. However, the wave corresponding to wave II in human auditory ABR was not recorded in the EABRs by stimulation of the distal part of the intracranial cochlear nerve. These results suggest that the cochlear nucleus does not contribute to the generation of wave II in ABR.
