Myringoplasty for chronic otitis media
The Indian Journal of Pediatrics, 200225 children in the age group of 8-14 years suffering from chronic suppurative otitis media were taken up for myringoplasty using onlay technique under general anaesthesia.All selected cases had a central type of dry perforation, good cochlear reserve and healthy middle ear mucosa.

Labyrinthitis in chronic otitis media
1991Labyrinthitis is the most frequent complication of chronic otitis media (COM). Retrospective analysis of 1,210 patients operated due to COM was carried out. Circumscribed labyrinthitis was found in 17.2% and deafness in 1.2% of patients. To evaluate the effect of labyrinthitis on bone conduction (BC) we measured BC threshold in a group of 140 patients ...

Chronic Otitis Media with Effusion
Pediatrics In Review, 1999Chronic OME, which arises from a complex series of inflammatory events in the middle ear, affects approximately 5% to 30% of children. The mean duration of MEE is 16 to 20 weeks during the first 2 years of life. This condition is diagnosed best with pneumatic otoscopy and tympanometry.

CHRONIC OTITIS MEDIA WITH EFFUSION
Primary Care: Clinics in Office Practice, 1996This article addresses the issues of cause, diagnosis, and management of otitis media with effusion in children. The progression from acute otitis media to chronic otitis media with effusion is described, and points of intervention are identified. Current recommendations on management and treatment are presented, including a discussion of the Agency ...

Otitis media occurs along a continuum. For example, otitis media with effusion characterized by fluid pathology can lead to chronic otitis media plus chronic mastoiditis, characterized by the presence of intractable tissue pathology such as cholesteatoma, cholesterol granuloma or granulation tissue. The literature defines chronic otitis media as having

Patients with chronic otitis media often complain of hearing loss and aural discharge. Hearing loss may be simply due to tympanic membrane perforation or due to fixation or disruption of the ossicles. The tympanic membrane perforation may involve a small part or the whole tympanic membrane. If there is no annulus, these perforations are called marginal

Bacteriology of Chronic Otitis Media
JAMA: The Journal of the American Medical Association, 1979Tympanocentesis was performed in 50 patients with chronic otitis media; pus was cultured aerobically and anaerobically. Only aerobes were isolated from 21 patients (42%), three patients had only anaerobes (Peptococcus sp), and 25 patients (50%) had both aerobes and anaerobes. Only one specimen had no growth. There were 68 aerobic isolates.

The etiology of chronic otitis media
Clinical Otolaryngology, 1978Various current theories regarding the aetiology of chronic otitis media are considered in detail. The concept that it originates from an acute middle ear infection no longer appears tenable. Recent experimental work has demonstrated the role of invading skin causing invasive osteitis. It is postulated that in some instances osteitis may follow erosion
