Value of pre-operative caloric test in predicting speech perception after cochlear implantation in adults with post-lingual hearing loss.

abstract：OBJECTIVE:Temperature-controlled radiofrequency volumetric tissue reduction (RFVTR) is a minimally invasive technique used in the treatment of the tongue base, soft palate and turbinates. Complications seem to be rare, but the scope of previous studies was often limited by the small number of patients included. The aim...
