Successful Cochlear Implant for Rafal After Four Years of Waiting
At Al-Kafeel Super Specialty Hospital, a young girl named Rafal arrived from Maysan Province carrying a four-year story of silence and waiting.
Her family had visited numerous clinics and medical centers, searching for an answer to her hearing problem without success, until they came to Al-Kafeel Super Specialty Hospital for a comprehensive evaluation, according to Dr. Hisham Al-Mousawi, a specialist in otolaryngology.
Dr. Al-Mousawi explained that after performing the necessary detailed medical examinations, the team diagnosed a cochlear malformation that prevented it from functioning normally.
Following a careful assessment, the medical team decided to perform cochlear implantation surgery.
During the procedure, intraoperative auditory testing was carried out, and the results were highly satisfactory.
Dr. Al-Mousawi described that moment as the true reward for the medical team: seeing hope restored and a new future begin for the young patient.
