Abstract:
Objective??To?discuss?the?treatment?characteristics?of?secretory?otitis?media?(SOM)?in?cleft?palate?children. Methods??A?total?of?319?patients?(524?ears)?with?SOM?and?cleft?palate?(3-14?years?old)?who?accepted?treatment?were?divided?into?experiment?group?A,?group?B,?and?group?C?according?to?effusion?characteristics?in?the?middle?ear?and?tympanic?pressure.?Group?A?included?112?patients?with?serous?effusion?(198?ears).?Group?B?included?162?patients?with?mucinous?effusion?(248?ears).?Group?C?included?45?patients?(78?ears)?with?negative?pressure?in?the?middle?ear?without?effusion?and?an?acoustic?immit-tance.?A?total?of?208?patients?(246?ears)?with?SOM?and?tonsil?and?adenoid?hypertrophy?were?divided?into?control?group?A1,?group?B1,?and?group?C1?matched?with?the?same?effusion?characteristics?in?the?middle?ear?and?tympanic?pressure.?Group?A?and?A1?accepted?puncture?in?the?tympanic?cavity,?group?B?and?B1?accepted?tympanostomy?tubes,?and?group?C?and?C1?accepted?puncture?in?the?tympanic?cavity?after?palatoplasty,?adenoidectomy,?and?tonsillectomy.?All?groups?were?treated?with?antibiotics?and?ear?drops.?Cure?rate?and?recurrence?rate?between?the?experiment?group?and?the?control?group?were?compared.?Results??The?control?group?had?a?better?cure?rate?[93.09%?(229/246)]?than?the?experiment?group?[77.29%?(405/524)]?12?months?after?treatment.?The?experiment?group?had?a?higher?recurrence?rate?[14.57%?(59/405)]?than?the?control?group?[3.93%?(9/229)].?Statistical?diffe-rences?were?observed?between?the?two?groups?(P<0.05).?SOM?with?cleft?palate?initially?had?a?low?cure?rate,?and?thus?it?was?treated?repeatedly?for?many?times.?Conclusion??SOM?with?cleft?palate?is?different?from?normal?otitis?media?in?terms?of?clinical?manifestation,?treatment,?outcome,?and?prognosis.?This?case?should?be?considered?a?special?otitis?media?to?be?treated?with?special?examination?and?therapy?to?obtain?better?results.?Repeated?puncture?in?the?tympanic?cavity?and?tympanostomy?tubes?for?six?months?according?to?effusion?characteristics?are?better?treatment?options?for?patients?with?SOM?and?cleft?palate.
