Abstract

Background: SEROUS OTITIS media is a common disease with known effects on hearing loss and learning ability. The present study has been conducted over the patients referring to BooAli hospital since 1996 till 1998, to determine the efficacy of MYRINGOTOMY and V.T. Materials and methods: 40 patients (80 ears) with bilateral SEROUS OTITIS media being resistant to conventional therapy were selected through a clinical examination and tympanometery. Then, they have been randomly distributed in two groups of case and control. Patients in the case group were received oral corticosteroid one week prior to the surgery. Groups were compared considering otorrhea during the surgery, MYRINGOTOMY, and VT. Results: Mucosal and serous discharge has been reported in 72.5% and 27.5% of the patients in the control group, respectively. However, in the case group mucosal discharge was recorded in 55% and serous discharge in 5%. The remaining 40% were presented without discharge (p<0.0001). Conclusion: Drug-resistant SEROUS OTITIS media is a prevalent disorder in our country, where MYRINGOTOMY and VT could be a helpful approach. Applying a short course of systemic steroid before the surgery seems to be accompanied with better hearing performance and operation outcome.
