Abstract:
:To rehabilitate profoundly deaf patients who are not suitable for cochlear implants, central auditory prostheses have been implanted. To compare two possible electrode configurations - penetrating and surface ones - electrical stimulation of the cochlear nucleus with both types of arrays was tested on guinea pigs and cats. Electrophysiological, autoradiographic and histological measures were used to study effects of the central auditory prostheses on the auditory pathway. The results showed that a successful electrically evoked auditory brainstem response could be recorded with both surface and penetrating electrodes in cats and guinea pigs. In guinea pigs the penetrating electrodes had advantages over surface arrays in the sense of lower thresholds and wider dynamic ranges. In cats penetrating electrodes showed lower thresholds than surface ones. In cats and guinea pigs stimulated with either surface or penetrating electrodes, evoked 2-deoxyglucose (2-DG) label was found in the auditory pathway from the cochlear nucleus to the inferior colliculus. No non-auditory tissues were found with evoked 2-DG label. Histological results showed that in subdivisions of the guinea pig cochlear nucleus stimulated with penetrating electrodes the neurone density was decreased, and the mean soma area was increased compared with the control side. In the cat, penetrating electrodes were associated only with increased mean soma area in parts of the stimulated cochlear nucleus. These results suggest that the physiological advantages of penetrating electrodes over surface ones were achieved with some trade-off in safety, especially in the guinea pig.
