摘要

Introduction

Reviewing the literature, Osia 2 system implantation is predominantly performed under general anesthesia (GA). Although in the pediatric population GA is inevitable, in adult cases, especially with high anesthesiological risks, local anesthesia (LA) is an obvious solution.

Method

The aim of this article is to provide a detailed demonstration of Osia 2 implantation under LA. In our case series of five adult implant recipients, the surgical procedure was carried out without encountering any difficulties during or after the operation.

Conclusion

Based on our experiences, implantation of the Osia® 2 System under local anesthesia is an easy and safe method for patients.
