摘要
Bone-anchored hearing aids (BAHA implants) have been shown to result in increased auditory capabilities and subsequently higher life quality in patients with hearing loss. Complications surrounding the implants are typically minor; however, the presence of the implant can cause serious infections in patients who have cancer or are otherwise immunocompromised. This article details on one such interesting case, in which tissue surrounding the BAHA implant of a neutropenic patient was infected by Staphylococcus epidermidis.
