Therapeutical protocol in otitis seromucosa

Abstract

Introduction. In the first part of the paper, the authors propose to systematize the data from the literature on seromucous otitis. Material and methods. We performed a retrospective clinical study, starting from the premise that there are 3 therapeutic trends for children with chronic seromucous otitis in medical practice. A first group includes children who only underwent adenoidectomy, the second who underwent adenoidectomy and myringotomy and the third group who underwent adenoidectomy and the installation of a trans- tympanic drainage tube. The results were compared, and a new therapeutical protocol regarding the pediatric patients with chronic seromucous otitis comes as a final conclusion.
