  1. CI cochlear implantation, SD standard deviation, RW round window, PB pull-back technique.
  2. aNote that two cases with shorter cochlear duct length underwent the extended pull-back approach to obtain better modiolar proximity of CI532/CI632.
  3. bNote that genotype profile on causative variants is described in Supplementary Table S1.
