ABSTRACT
The article provides a review of literature on cochlear implantation (CI) complications. The authors describe the current state of the problem, listing all CI complications in children and adults divided into minor and major ones depending on the severity and the need for revision surgery. The results of the studies of various authors revealed a low number of surgical complications, which are in most cases effectively removed by conservative methods or minor interventions indicating the safety of CI in children and adults.
