    "abstract": "To compare long-term impedance and functional outcomes between the round window and cochleostomy approaches in cochlear implantation patients.\nNinety prelingually deafened children who underwent unilateral cochlear implantation participated in this prospective observational study. Participants were divided into round window and cochleostomy groups. Impedance and speech perception were assessed at switch-on, and at 6, 12, and 24 months.\nImpedance was similar between groups except at switch-on, where the cochleostomy group had higher basal turn impedance (2.41 \nNo significant differences in impedance or speech outcomes were found between the round window and cochleostomy groups, except for higher basal-turn impedance at switch-on in the cochleostomy group, indicating more fibrosis.",
