• Management:
– NPO, IV uids; do not induce vomiting.
– Reux management.
– Empiric antibiotics debated.
– Esophagoscopy at 24–72h.
Consider intraoperative nasogastric tube placement (stent)
Increased risk of iatrogenic perforation after 72h
– Grading:
Grade 1: mucosal erythema
Grade 2: mucosal erythema with non-circumferential ulceration
Grade 3: circumferential ulceration
Grade 4: circumferential ulceration with perforation
– Observation for Grade 1–2; consider steroids.
– More aggressive management for Grade 3–4, may require esophagectomy.
– Sequelae: esophageal stricture requiring repeat dilations, esophageal perfora-
tion, and mediastinitis.
A. F. Karas and J. W. Lee
Esophageal Foreign Bodies
• Anatomical structures compressing the esophagus, points of potential location
for foreign bodies:
– Cricopharyngeus
– Aortic arch
– Left mainstem bronchus
– Lower esophageal sphincter
• Some small foreign bodies can be followed by serial X-rays to ensure passage;
observation for 24h.
• Batteries (“double-halo sign”) and sharp objects may lead to catastrophic complications and mortality and should be promptly removed.
– For battery, frequent ingestion of honey (10mL every 10min) while en route
to the ER may be protective but should not delay care. Can only be done in
children ≥12months
• Food impaction:
– Consider evaluation for esophageal stricture, peristaltic dysfunction, biopsy
for eosinophilic esophagitis (>15 eosinophils per high-power eld), and/or
signicant personal or family history of atopy

Pearls
• The workup for congenital sensorineural hearing loss (SNHL) should consist of
at least an electrocardiogram (EKG), ophthalmologic evaluation, and an imaging
study (MRI/CT).
– MRI can be obtained early on when infant is very young, and infant may sleep
through study without the need for sedation.
– Eye exam is important if patient has at least one special sensory impairment.
– Genetics evaluation may be useful for counseling and prognostic information.
– Other studies can be obtained as dictated by individual cases, but “shotgun”
approach to testing may be expensive and unnecessary.
• Aural polyps in the external auditory canal (EAC) should trigger suspicion for an
associated underlying cause for exuberant inammatory/granulation tissue
reaction.
– Prior to biopsy of external auditory canal lesion, imaging should be consid-
ered—rule out vascular or intracranial connection.
• Steroids may be protective for SNHL in cases of meningitis; however, early
cochlear implantation in patients with signicant SNHL from meningitis is
important due to labyrinthitis ossicans.

• The importance of binaural hearing is becoming more accepted—hearing in
noise, summation, squelch, and directionality.
– Bilateral cochlear implants demonstrate some improved objective measures.
A. F. Karas and J. W. Lee
External Auditory Canal Pathology
• Otitis externa
– Pseudomonas, Staphylococcus aureus, can be polymicrobial
– Treatment: aural hygiene, debridement, ototopical antibiotic and steroid
drops, may require wick placement if edema
• Otomycosis
– Fungal infection of EAC skin, often related to ototopical antibiotics/steroid
use, can also be seen in immunocompromised populations
– Aspergillus, Candida most common
– Fungal debris in EAC, often with hyphae and sometimes spores on
otomicroscopy
– Treatment: debridement, re-acidication of canal, topical antifungals
• Aural polyps—granulation tissue formation which may be associated with any
of the following:
– Chronic suppurative otitis media, with or without cholesteatoma
– Underlying tympanostomy tube
– Malignant otitis externa (necrotizing otitis externa, temporal bone
osteomyelitis)
Susceptible populations
• Poorly controlled diabetics
• Immunosuppressed—leukemia, bone marrow transplant, organ transplant, etc.
TC-99 imaging helpful for initial diagnosis but stays positive after resolution; Gallium-67 and Indium-111 scans better for disease monitoring
– Malignancies
Rhabdomyosarcoma—most common pediatric temporal bone malignancy
Nonrhabdomyosarcomatous sarcoma—extremely rare, includes chondrosarcoma, chordoma, osteosarcoma, Ewing sarcoma, chloroma
Lymphoma and carcinoma—very rare

– Langerhans cell histiocytosis (pseudomalignancy)
Rare locally destructive condition from proliferation of Langerhans cells
Eosinophilic granuloma (unifocal), Hand-Schuller-Christian disease (unisystem multifocal), Letterer-Siwe disease (multisystem)
47
Otitis Media (OM)
• Shorter, narrower, more horizontal eustachian tube makes children uniquely
prone to chronic otitis media with effusion (COME) and acute otitis media (AOM)
• Risk factors: gender (COME more common in males), bottle feeding, sibling
history of OM, daycare attendance, lower socioeconomic status, passive smoke
exposure, craniofacial abnormalities, immunodeciency
• Etiologic agents of AOM: Streptococcus pneumoniae, Haemophilus inuenzae,
Moraxella catarrhalis, Group A Strep
• Sequelae: adhesive otitis media, chronic suppurative otitis media, tympanic
membrane perforation, tympanosclerosis, tympanic membrane retraction pocket,
cholesteatoma, ossicular necrosis, hearing loss, mastoiditis
– Adenoidectomy may help with eustachian tube dysfunction and help prevent
need for replacement of tympanostomy tubes and other sequelae of COME/
AOM, currently recommended as possible adjunct to tympanostomy tube
placement for COME in patients ≥4years old
• Acute indications for myringotomy±tympanostomy tube placement:
– AOM in a seriously ill or toxic child, AOM unresponsive to antibiotics, sup-
purative complications of AOM, AOM in newborn or immunocompromised
patient, AOM with facial paralysis, AOM with meningitis or other intracranial process
• Indications for tympanostomy tube placement:
– Recurrent AOM (≥3 episodes in 6months, ≥4 episodes in 12months with at
least 1 episode in the past 6months)
– Bilateral COME ≥3months, unilateral COME ≥6months; earlier for signi-
cant (>25dB) hearing loss, speech/language delay, severe retraction pocket,
disequilibrium/vertigo, tinnitus
• Complications of tympanostomy tube placement:
– Otorrhea, granulation tissue, myringosclerosis, tympanic membrane perfora-
tion, cholesteatoma, early extrusion, plugged tube, loss of tube in middle ear,
retained tube

Mastoiditis
• Complication of acute otitis media
• Based on clinical evaluation and history
– Acute AOM or within last 2weeks, otalgia, fever, protrusion of ear; redness,
pain, swelling behind ear
– ± otorrhea, conductive hearing loss (CHL)
• Intracranial complications
– Imaging (CT) to assess for bony coalescence
– Meningitis, subperiosteal abscess, subdural empyema, focal otitis encephali-
tis, brain abscess, lateral sinus thrombosis
– Symptoms include persistent headaches, lethargy, malaise, nausea/vomiting,
fever, severe otalgia; ataxia, blurred vision, CN/facial nerve decits, focal
seizures
• Treatment
– IV antibiotics, tympanostomy tube placement, I&D of subperiosteal abscess
if present, mastoidectomy
– Neurosurgical interventional for abscess/empyema
Congenital Sensorineural Hearing Loss
• 50% acquired, 50% hereditary
• 1/3 of hereditary cases are syndromic, 2/3 non-syndromic
• 80% of non-syndromic cases are autosomal recessive (AR), 15% autosomal
dominant (AD), 5% X-linked/mitochondrial inheritance
• Cytomegalovirus (CMV)
– Most common cause of non-hereditary SNHL in childhood.
– Most children asymptomatic at birth but can develop late sequelae; SNHL is
the most common sequela.
– Overall rate of HL in CMV infection ~12%.
• Auditory brainstem response (ABR)
– Newborn ABR waves I/II (eight nerve), III (olivary complex), V (inferior
colliculus)
• Otoacoustic emissions (OAEs)
– Spontaneous—of little clinical use, not present in all patients
– Evoked—transient evoked OAEs (TEOAE), distortion product
OAEs (DPOAE)

• Continuing campaign for universal newborn hearing screening using
ABR or OAEs
– Referral for formal audiometric testing/sedated ABR if failure
• Auditory testing
– Behavioral observational audiometry: 0–6months
– Visual reinforcement audiometry: 6months to 2years
– Conditioned play audiometry: 2–5years
• Workup considerations
– EKG
– Ophthalmology consult—SNHL may be associated with visual problems and
want to maximize sensory input
– Imaging—indicated for evaluation for cochlear implantation, in children with
recurrent meningitis, history of sudden or progressive SNHL especially following head trauma, or where imaging results will impact patient counseling
CT
• Advantages
– Lower cost
– Increased availability
– Speed resolution of capturing images (may be able to avoid sedation)
– Better visualization of bony labyrinth and osseous, inner structures
• Disadvantages
– Radiation exposure
– Difcult to assess the presence of cochlear nerve
MRI
• Advantages
– Superior visualization of membranous labyrinth, internal auditory
canal (can visualize cochlear nerve), high T2 intensity
– Lack of ionizing radiation
• Disadvantages
– More expensive
– Increased length of time
– May require sedation due to length of exam
– Availability
– Genetics consultation—counseling and testing
Nonsyndromic: 50% AR caused by mutation at DNFB1 locus.

Congenital Inner Ear Malformations
• Membranous (~80%)
– Not visible using current imaging modalities
– Scheibe dysplasia: cochleosaccular aplasia, most common
– Bing-Siebenmann dysplasia: membranous aplasia of both cochlear and ves-
tibular portions, bony labyrinth normal
– Alexander aplasia: cochlear duct aplasia, especially affecting basal turn
– Associated with Jarvell-Lange-Nielsen, Refsum, Usher and Waardenburg
syndromes
• Bony and membranous (~20%)
– Michel (complete labyrinthine) aplasia: third week gestation
– Common cavity: fourth week
– Cochlear aplasia: fth week
– Mondini malformation (incomplete cochlear partitions): seventh week
Associated with Pendred, branchio-oto-renal, Waardenburg, Treacher
Collins, Wildervanck (Klippel-Feil), and Mobius syndromes
• Labyrinthine anomalies
– Present in 40% of patients with radiographically visible cochlear anomalies.
– Dysplasia more common that aplasia.
– Lateral semicircular canal develops last and is most commonly affected.
51
• Aqueductal anomalies
– Enlarged vestibular aqueduct: >1.5mm in diameter; associated with Mondini
malformation, Pendred syndrome; ~40% of patients will progress to profound
SNHL classically precipitated by head trauma.
– Enlarged cochlear aqueduct: normal ~3–4 diameter.
• Internal auditory canal anomalies
– Narrow (<3mm) associated with absent or hypoplastic CN VIII
Cochlear Implant Criteria
• Age 12months or greater (evaluation can begin sooner).
• Bilateral severe to profound hearing loss.

52
https://t.me/medicina_free
• Limited benet from hearing aids (usually 3–6-month trial).
• Strong family commitment.
• Educational plan and resources that emphasize the development of auditory skills.
• Prognosis of speech development will depend on age of implantation and if pre-/
post-lingual.
• Note that implantation may occur earlier and without trial of hearing aids in the
setting of progressive post-meningitic cochlear ossication.
• Special considerations: narrow IAC, cochlear nerve aplasia, and Michel aplasia.
Implantation can be considered, but appropriate counseling should be performed.
Also beware of perilymph gusher.
• FDA approvals are constantly changing.
A. F. Karas and J. W. Lee
Central Auditory Processing Disorder
• Auditory neuropathy spectrum disorder (ANSD)
– Normal OAEs
– Absent or abnormal ABR
– Suggests CN VIII dysfunction
– MRI and genetic workup recommended
– Variable benet with cochlear implantation
Conductive Hearing Loss (CHL)
• Bone conduction hearing aids
– Atresia/microtia
– Chronic otorrhea or abnormally small EAC where air conduction hearing aids
are insufcient
• Ossicular chain reconstruction if CHL following cholesteatoma resection necessitating removal of ossicles
• Atresiaplasty only in carefully selected patients according to Jahrsdoerfer criteria
– 1 point each for normal external ear, pneumatized middle ear, pneumatized
mastoid, normal facial nerve, malleus-incus complex, incus-stapes complex,
patent round window, and patent oval window.
– 2 points for present stapes.
– Traditionally, atresiaplasty can be considered in patient with score ≥6.
– Presence of stapes is probably most important single factor for prognosis of
good hearing outcome (closure of air-bone gap to <20dB).
• Middle ear implants may be more available in the future; indications/applications still under review
