  abstract = {We share our experience of the child with chronic kidney disease who developed profound bilateral sensorineural hearing loss, and later underwent renal transplant surgery, and subsequently cochlear implant surgery. The aim of the study is to look at the co morbidity and the complications associated with implanting an immunosuppressed kidney transplant recipient child. A 12 year old child who develops bilateral sensorineural hearing loss at the age of 7 years and underwent kidney transplant at the age of 10 years, was implanted with nucleus implant. The Child’s progress in intra operative and post operative period was monitored. The child developed appropriate improvement in hearing as per expectation. This was a challenging case and only few such cases of organ transplant with a cochlear implant have been reported so far. Our implantee has done extremely well and cochlear implant surgery should be offered when indicated in renal transplant patients too.},
