Systematic Review on Intra- and Extracochlear Electrical Stimulation for Tinnitus

Several electrical stimulation patterns of the auditory nerve have been described for tinnitus relief, but there is no consensus on the most effective stimulation pattern. Therefore, we aim to systematically review the literature on the effect of intra- and extracochlear electrical stimulation patte...
