It is important to make a diagnosis early to intervene and limit negative effects. Deafness is a particular phenomenon (onset, types), in this paper we undertake a thorough descriptive analysis on all aspects of deafness, in particular the use of a prosthetic device known as cochlear implant. We have deepened personality variables in a single case with the use of Rorschach Test and Draw-a-2 MENTO C., GALLETTI F. ET AL. person-Test. We aimed to study, with the clinical interpretation of instruments, which personality variables could be involved in hearing loss condition and Cochlear Implant (CI). This observational study highlights the psychological dynamics that should be taken into account by operators team, in order to improve the quality of life of these patients and increase their long-term therapeutic outcome
