Summary

The fine evaluation of the function of auditory neurons in silence and in noise in humans is difficult, if not impossible, to date with the conventional methods available. That is why in certain situations, the hearing aids of patient with hearing loss fail, especially in the presence of noise.

In this study the investigators aim at investigating the global spontaneous and sound evoked human auditory nerve activity from electrophysiological acquisitions performed directly on the cochlear nerve in patients requiring posterior fossa surgery.

PROCEDURE

near field recording of human auditory nerve activity during retro sigmoid approach with contact electrode

During surgery using a retro-sigmoid approach in the cerebellopontine angle (microvascular decompression, vestibular neurotomy, meningioma or schwannoma removal), near-field recording of human auditory nerve activity using a contact electrode is performed on patients with normal or impaired hearing threshold. Each patient is explored preoperatively by hearing tests in noise and in silence. During the operation, stimuli are delivered in silence and in noise, under the same conditions as during the preoperative auditory exploration.
