  • Title: [Chronic suppurative otitis media in the child. Treatment and results].
    Author: Heumann H.
    Journal: Laryngol Rhinol Otol (Stuttg); 1987 Jan; 66(1):19-20. PubMed ID: 3561121.
    Abstract:
    122 children with chronic otitis media were operated on in the ENT-clinic of the University of Tübingen between 1977 and 1984. The tympanic membrane was successfully closed in 85% of the children. The hearing was improved markedly in the majority of the patients. We therefore recommend an early operation for children with chronic otitis media to prevent further damage to the middle ear and to enable the children to take part in extracurricular activities such as swimming.
