Anyone with a child that has a cochlear implant that the child rejected?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Very rare: Thete are a very small amount of people that would have a sensitivity to the coating of the implant, but extremely rare. Some children choose not to use the device because of social or personal reasons, but medical rejection of the device is quite uncommon.
