17 Otitis Media withEusion
Fig. 17.7 Postoperative images of a 4-year-old child at 3months follow-up of VT insertion sur­gery. The Shepard-style grommet tube stays in place in the right ear (a), whereas the tube is expelled into the external ear canal in the left ear (b). Note the healthy appearance of both tym­panic membranes

Otorrhea is the most common complication of VT placement operation [82]. Early otorrhea is the drainage of the existing effusion and begins immediately after the surgi­cal procedure, is self-limiting, and disappears over time. Late otorrhea which is seen more commonly begins a few months after the procedure, secondary to upper respira­tory tract infections and is usually treated with topical drops. Myringosclerosis is also a very common condition and is characterized by accumulation of calcic deposits during the proliferation of broblasts of the brous layer of the tympanic membrane. Although it is usually not of clinical importance, myringosclerosis can trigger the development of tympanosclerosis and cause conductive hearing loss with ossicular

chain xation [83]. Other less common complications include tube obstruction and, rarely, tube migration into the middle ear cavity. Although not very often again, the tube may sometimes be expelled earlier than expected. The perforation in the tympanic membrane may persist after the tube falls off in 1%–10% of cases [83]. A wider inner ange of the tube, a longer stay time of the tube on the membrane, and a history of previous VT application are the conditions that increase the risk of a permanent perfo­ration. Occurrence of iatrogenic cholesteatoma is extremely rare, and it is thought to develop from a part of epidermis that is migrated into the middle ear by the VT [83].
It is important to note that VT placement does not prevent the progression of tym­panic membrane atrophy or retraction. And with that said, young children who are surgically treated with VT promptly after the diagnosis of chronic OME show sig­nicantly more tympanic membrane abnormalities such as local atrophy or tympano­sclerosis than their peers who are operated 6–9 months after the diagnosis [84]. Moreover, the development of chronic otitis media with cholesteatoma, which is a serious complication of OME in the long term, is seen more in children with refrac­tory OME that requires multiple VT insertions. Interestingly, despite increased tym­panic membrane abnormalities that VT insertion leads, prompt treatment after the diagnosis at an early age and shorter time between the VT insertions reduce the risk of developing cholesteatoma [19]. This is thought to be due to a reduction in the time of exposure to negative middle ear pressure. In addition, in patients with a history of VT placement, recurrence of OME is also less frequent within 2years after the VT has completed its functional role on the tympanic membrane and is expelled [85].
Another surgical procedure that can be combined with the insertion of VT for the treatment of OME is adenoidectomy. Especially over the age of 4, when adenoidec­tomy is performed in the same session with VT insertion, OME recurrences with the

need for re-insertion of VT decrease as well as occurring later compared to VT insertion alone in the 2-year follow-up period [86, 87]. While the American clinical practice guideline for OME routinely recommends performing adenoidectomy in children over 4years of age, it recommends adenoidectomy to be performed only when the child has accompanying symptoms of nasal obstruction or in the presence of recurrent OME under the age of 4 [73]. One of the reasons to perform adenoid­ectomy is to remove mechanical obstruction at the orice of Eustachian tube, so that the secretion from the Eustachian tube is drained and air can again pass retrogradely, as a result, the middle ear pressure is equalized with the ambient pressure. Therefore, adenoidectomy as a treatment protocol for OME is conventionally effective in large adenoid vegetations that block the Eustachian orices [88]. However, studies also showed that adenoidectomy was benecial in children with OME even if the ade­noids are small and non-obstructive [89]. In this sense, the reason for removing the adenoid pad is actually to remove a source of infection rather than to relieve block­age of the Eustachian tube. After all, one should always consider adenoidecotmy as a treatment method that has been proven to improve the clinical course of OME [90].
Last but not least, considering that OME is substantially prevalent among the children with Down syndrome and the intrinsic learning challenges these children already have, early intervention, especially early VT insertion, is crucial to avoid any potential deteriorative effect of a mild hearing loss in these children; so that they could be reintegrated into the society [91].

17.7 Conclusion

OME is a very common disease that can be regarded as a public health problem especially in the pediatric era. Unless timely and correct diagnosis and relevant treatment are made, OME can lead to signicant problems both medically and sociologically. Diagnosis can be made quite easily with examinations performed in the outpatient settings. Hearing evaluation should not be missed and must be done both before and after the treatment. There is no denitive medical treatment for OME, and medications usually just provide symptomatic relief. In OMEs that do not improve after 3months of wait-and-see approach, that is, in chronic OMEs, VT insertion is the only treatment recommended in global guidelines as their effective­ness, and benets have been proven. Including adenoidectomy to the treatment pro­tocol should strongly be considered especially in children over 4 years of age. Regular follow-up of the disease is crucial in order not to miss the complications.

Chronic Suppurative Otitis Media

MehmetİlhanŞahin, BurcuBakıcı, andDusanMilisavljevic

18.1 Introduction

Chronic suppurative otitis media (CSOM) is a widespread and persistent infectious disease of the middle ear and mastoid cavity, which leads to signicant morbidity. CSOM typically develops as a sequela of protracted acute otitis media (AOM), a common condition affecting roughly 80% of children by the age of 3 [1]. Although the majority of AOM cases resolve spontaneously, a fraction of cases advance to a persistent state, which is characterized by chronic purulent ear discharge through a perforated eardrum as well as varying degrees of hearing loss [2].

18.2 Epidemiology

The worldwide prevalence of chronic suppurative otitis media is 65–330 million people and evenly distributed across genders. Each year, complications from CSOM are responsible for approximately 28,000 deaths worldwide [3]. CSOM has a broad impact, aficting individuals of all ages across diverse geographical and ethnic
