Zusammenfassung:OBJECTIVE. Inventing of the system of auditory brainstem implantation.MATERIAL AND METHODS. 3 patients were chosen for study: 2 adults with neurofibromatosis of type II and a 2 years old child with bilateral cochlea aplasia.RESULTS. In the end of the first rehabilitation, the auditory thresholds accounted 45–50 dB. In 2 years after surgery, the adults differentiate words from the closed set. Passive vocabulary of the child amounted for 200 words. Speech intelligibility was 30–70 % in these patients.CONCLUSION. Wearing of auditory processor for five months led to significant dynamics.
