Cochlear implantation has a significant impact on subjective vertigo and vestibular receptor function. This is affected by the patient's age at the time of surgery. The surgical technique (round window or cochleostomy) may influence the outcome, but this requires further investigation. Younger patients may compensate better following vestibular dysfunction. Perioperative testing is required to correlate vestibular impairment and subjective complaints. Laryngoscope, 2018 Laryngoscope, 128:2110-2123, 2018.
