Intraoperative mobile cone-beam computed tomography is useful in detecting the tip fold-over of the slim modiolar electrodes during surgery. Therefore, it was possible to reinsert the electrodes in all cases before closing the wound, eliminating the need for revision surgeries. Moreover, the analysis of mobile cone-beam computed tomography images may help to elucidate the mechanisms of electrode tip fold-over.
