Actinomycosis Otitis Media

Archives of Otolaryngology - Head and Neck Surgery, 1988
Infection of the middle ear and mastoid by actinomycosis is uncommon. We report the 21st case in the English literature. Actinomycosis otitis media is characterized by an indolent course but may be fatal. Multiple recurrences after standard antibiotic therapy are common. Effective treatment consists of surgery and penicillin for several months.

Serous Otitis Media

Archives of Pediatrics & Adolescent Medicine, 1960
The problem of secretory otitis media has shown a marked increase in both incidence and resistance to treatment in the past one and one-half decades.

The condition is occasionally observed in elderly sick patients who require feeding by hand while lying in a supine position, but it is relatively common in infants and sucklings. A search of the literature discloses no similar series
