Abstract

The authors present their observations upon surgically treated children with otitis media with effusion. The results are indicative of usefulness of ventilation tubes, myringotomy and adenoidectomy in the treatment of the otitis media with effusion in children. The efficiency of the treatment is based on the hearing examination and tympanometry, and the lack of recurrence of inflammation of the middle ear. 67.6% of cases revealed normal hearing.
