A 2.5 Years Old 's Journey to Sound In AKUH Operating Room (Cochlear Implant Success Story)

Little Mohammad, a 2.5 years old, arrived at the operating theater with his father, his big brown eyes filled with a mix of curiosity and apprehension. Today was the day he would receive a cochlear implant in his right ear, a chance to unlock a world of sound previously shrouded in silence.



Dr. Akbar Abbas, along with his seasoned ENT surgery team and the capable hands of Dr. Shabbir's anesthesia crew, awaited. Assisting Dr. Abbas was his Chief Resident, Abdul Basit, whose passion for ear surgery and cochlear implantation radiated through his focused demeanor. Ghiyas, the senior operating room technician, ensured everything was prepped with meticulous precision.

OR Tales: A 2.5Years Old's Journey to Sound

Our state-of-the-art tools – a high-definition Leica microscope and a high-speed NSK drill machine – hummed softly, ready to play their part in this delicate dance. With a gentle incision behind Mohammad's ear, the journey began. Dr. Abbas, with practiced expertise, performed a soft cochlear implantation through the round window, minimizing tissue disruption. A Cochlear Nucleus 522 electrode, carefully chosen, was meticulously inserted, its full placement confirmed by audiologist Shumaila's precise neural response telemetry and impedance measurements.



Within an hour, the symphony of surgical precision concluded. A protective bandage graced Mohammad's head, a temporary shield for the newly-implanted conductor of sound within his ear. Two hours later, Mohammad, bright-eyed and a little braver, was on his way home, the promise of a sound-filled world unfolding before him.



Alhamdulillah - A New Beginning



Mohammad's journey is just beginning. With the cochlear implant, he will have the opportunity to experience the world of sound for the first time. His laughter, his first words, the joy of music - all of these await him.



This is a story of hope for 2.5 years old Muhammad, of dedication, and of the life-changing power of medical technology. It is a story that Dr. Akbar Abbas and his team are proud to be a part of.
