Purpose The aim of this study was to investigate the feasibility and reliability of transcutaneous ultrasound for the detection of complications after cochlear implantation. Methods In a single center retrospective cohort study, 115 consecutive cases of suspected complications after cochlear implantation (intervention group) were examined. The rate of pathologic ultrasound findings for specific leading symptoms and diagnoses was compared to a control group comprising twenty consecutive cochlear implants in symptom-free patients. Results Diagnostic ultrasound showed distinctly more pathologic findings in the intervention group ( n  = 67; 58.3%;  p    0.999;  ϕ  = 0.13). Conclusion Transcutaneous ultrasound can be advocated as a feasible and effective method in the diagnostic work-up of magnet dislocation and haematoma or seroma around the implant following cochlear implantation. Contrary, ultrasound findings can be expected to be inconspicuous in patients presenting with undefined cephalgia and device malfunction or failure.
