They decided to undergo bone implantation surgery for the BAHA conduction system. After such an intervention, recovery takes only one month. These operations have been successfully performed for children in St. Nicholas Hospital for four years now. But for an adult – for the first time. And not only in our hospital and medical association, but also in Lviv in general. Our otolaryngologists implant an implant in the warrior, directly in the bone behind the ear, which is attached with a magnet. When the defender’s wound healed after the intervention, a processor was installed above his ear, which sends sound through the bone to the auditory nerve and makes it possible to hear again. After regaining his hearing, Yuri returned to service. Thank you warrior for your trust and protection!” message continues.
