with no other relevant history&#44; who received a cochlear implant &#40;CI&#41; in the left ear &#40;Cochlear Nucleus Freedom Contour Advance&#41; in 2014&#46; She was implanted at the age of 9 years&#44; using a classic facial recess approach&#44; with no intraoperative or immediate postoperative complications&#46; She responded well to the implant&#44; with very good audiometric results and open discrimination in free field&#46;</p><p id="par0010" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">In November 2019&#44; she presented urgently to paediatrics with facial paralysis &#40;grade IV House-Brackmann&#41; and intense intermittent holocranial headache&#46; She underwent a multislice computed tomography &#40;CT&#41; scan of the brain which was reported as normal&#59; she was therefore prescribed meprednisone and vitamin B12 for facial palsy&#46; The patient was treated and managed by the paediatrics service&#44; and the general medical history and otoscopic examination revealed the presence of an intact&#44; congestive eardrum&#46;</p><p id="par0015" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">She returned to the clinic 2 weeks later&#44; with persistent symptoms and a fever of 38&#46;5&#160;&#176;C&#44; and was admitted to hospital with a primary diagnosis of complicated acute otitis media&#46;</p><p id="par0020" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">A lumbar puncture &#40;LP&#41; was performed with increased opening pressure&#44; leukocytosis with a predominance of mononuclear cells&#44; and increased protein&#46; Blood tests demonstrated leukocytosis with a predominance of neutrophils&#46; Intravenous acyclovir and ceftriaxone were administered with symptomatic improvement&#46; There was no bacterial or fungal growth in the cultures &#40;blood culture&#44; urine culture&#44; and CSF culture&#41;&#44; and the IgM titration for herpes virus was negative&#59; consequently&#44; the acyclovir was discontinued&#46; Papillary oedema&#44; a sign of endocranial hypertension&#44; was visualised and acetazolamide was administered&#46; She was discharged from hospital after 10 days with acetazolamide and meprednisone&#44; with clear improvement of her facial paralysis and full recovery after one month&#46;</p><p id="par0025" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">Three months later&#44; she consulted her paediatrician again for a new episode of holocranial headache and vomiting&#44; together with isolated febrile spikes&#44; similar to the previous episode&#46; Symptomatic outpatient treatment with ibuprofen and metoclopramide was indicated&#46;</p><p id="par0030" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">Three weeks after that&#44; she presented with persistence of symptoms&#46; Physical examination revealed a stiff neck and signs of meningeal involvement&#44; and it was therefore decided that she be admitted to the paediatric ward&#46; In the clinical history&#44; the otoscopic examination on admission referred only to tympanic congestion&#46;</p><p id="par0035" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">The multislice CT scan revealed mastoid involvement&#46; A new lumbar puncture was performed&#44; which showed increased protein and leukocytosis with a predominance of mononuclear cells&#46; Treatment with ceftriaxone and acyclovir was started&#46; The need to evaluate with nuclear magnetic resonance &#40;NMR&#41; without artefact was raised&#44; which is why the ENT department was consulted&#44; specifically the implanting physician&#46; Until then&#44; the paediatric department had not considered the possible otogenic origin of the problem&#46; A medical meeting was held and it was decided that the otogenic origin of the problem caused by the cochlear implant&#8217;s internal processor magnet was otogenic&#44; so that an MRI scan could be performed&#46; During surgery&#44; no signs of acute middle ear infection were detected&#59; however&#44; the eardrum exhibited a small atal tear&#44; through which the electrode could be seen&#44; a finding not previously reported in her clinical history&#46;</p><p id="par0040" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">MRI with contrast revealed meningeal enhancement &#40;a finding related to meningitis&#41;&#44; associated with a hyperintense image in T2 in the internal auditory canal&#44; up to the dural region with gadolinium uptake&#44; compatible with an infectious process&#46; The decision was made to request a consultation with the Otorhinolaryngology Service at the University of Munich in Germany&#44; who agreed with the diagnosis and treatment instituted&#46;</p><p id="par0045" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">Because of this and given the slow evolution of the patient&#8217;s condition&#44; it was decided that an audiological evaluation be performed&#44; presenting vocal audiometry on the non-implanted side&#44; with 100&#37; discrimination at 70&#160;dB&#46; Due to the complication presented&#44; the entire cochlear implant was removed&#44; without complications&#44; and was sent to bacteriology for culture&#46; The intracochlear electrode bundle was not left in place as usual &#40;due to a possible late reimplantation&#44; so as to avoid fibrosis and intraluminal ossification&#41; at the request of the infectious disease service to be able to study all of the prosthetic material and the possibility of <span class="elsevierStyleItalic">biofilm</span>&#46;</p><p id="par0050" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">One week after removing the implant&#44; a new MRI was performed&#44; which showed a lesion in the left cerebellopontine angle with extension to the internal auditory canal&#44; surrounding the seventh and eighth cranial nerves&#44; hyperintense in T2 with gadolinium uptake&#44; raising the possibility of a schwannoma of the eighth cranial nerve as a differential diagnosis&#46; Small foci of internal necrosis and cerebral microabscesses were observed&#46;</p><p id="par0055" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">The new lumbar puncture was normal&#46; The patient exhibited a favourable evolution of all her symptoms after surgery to remove the implant&#46; The prosthesis underwent sonication and developed multisensitive <span class="elsevierStyleItalic">Pseudomonas aeruginosa</span>&#46;

Given the clinical improvement and laboratory parameters&#44; the patient was discharged home with ceftazidime and metronidazole for 6 weeks&#46; Evaluated in April 2020&#44; the patient remained asymptomatic&#44;

In conclusion&#44; in the presence of any late complication apparently unrelated to the implant&#44; such as facial paralysis&#44; recurrent otitis media&#44; and severe headaches&#44; an imaging examination&#44;
