About

Dr. Maura K. Cosetti is a pioneering neurotologist and skull base surgeon whose work sits at the intersection of surgical innovation, cochlear implantation, and geriatric otology. Her research has fundamentally advanced how surgeons approach complex temporal bone pathology, particularly through the adoption of novel visualization technologies. In her landmark work, she demonstrated the first use of the surgical exoscope—an extracorporeal video microscope—for repairing a temporal bone encephalocele, offering a less invasive alternative to traditional microscopic approaches. This contribution, alongside her broader investigations into hearing restoration in aging populations, has reshaped clinical practice. With over 1,500 total citations, Dr. Cosetti’s influence is widely felt; her studies on cochlear implant outcomes in elderly patients have been cited more than 300 times, establishing critical benchmarks for candidacy and surgical technique. A prolific educator and researcher at the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai, she has also been recognized with multiple teaching awards and serves as a key opinion leader in the American Neurotology Society. Her work continues to bridge the gap between cutting-edge technology and patient-centered surgical care.
