  • Title: [Cleft palate and inflammatory diseases of the middle ear].
    Author: Duroux S, Devars F, Patuano E, Bondonny JM, Traissac L.
    Journal: Rev Laryngol Otol Rhinol (Bord); 1993; 114(3):165-9. PubMed ID: 8191058.
    Abstract:
    Based on a series of 57 children who were operated for velar clefts, the authors studied the different associated aspects of middle ear inflammatory pathology: physiopathology, occurrence, evolution, complications. Seromucous otitis was initially found in 87% of the cases. Three years after surgery, it persisted in 70% of the cases. These children should be monitored on a long-term basis for timely detection of any and all evolution towards chronic otitis or even cholesteatomas.
