  • Title: Hearing loss due to mannosidosis and otitis media with effusion. A case report and review of audiological assessments in children with otitis media with effusion.
    Author: Ahmmed AU, O'Halloran SM, Roland NJ, Starkey M, Wraith JE.
    Journal: J Laryngol Otol; 2003 Apr; 117(4):307-9. PubMed ID: 12816222.
    Abstract:
    A case of a child with mannosidosis and bilateral otitis media with effusion (OME) is reported here along with some discussion of relevant literature to emphasize the need for age appropriate audiometric assessment before and after insertion of grommets for glue ear (OME). There is a need for multidisciplinary teamwork in the management of children with hearing loss. If OME is treated surgically, age-appropriate hearing assessment is required before and after insertion of grommets. The need for audiological assessments will be relevant even if children had passed the newborn hearing screening test.
