Abstract:
Objective To explore the treatment using two different ventilation tubes insertion for secretory o-titis media ,and to determine which factors are associated with the tympanic membrane perforation after a extrusion or surgical removal of a ventilation tube(VT) .Methods A retrospective analysis of 121 cases (210 ears) with re-fractory secretory otitis media from 1998 June to 2013 March was carried out .There were 58 cases (105 ears ) and 63 cases (105 ears) in patients and control group ,respectively .All subjects had more than 2 years of history ,and were treated by two types of ventilation tube (Goode -T and Shepard tube) .Various factors were analyzed to deter-mine the factors associated with persistence of a tympanic membrane perforation after VT extrusion or removal ,in-cluding gender ,age ,medical history ,ventilation tube pattern ,location ,history of previous VT insertions ,intuba-tion period reason for VT insertion ,condition of the TM ,nature of the tympanic cavity effusion and previous ade-noidectomy ,et .Results Analysis factors of perforation group (105 ears) and the control group (without perfora-tion ,105 ears) ,were statistically significant in ventilation tube pattern (χ2 =6 .916 ,P<0 .01) ,history of previous VT insertions(χ2 =7 .325 ,P<0 .01) ,frequency of previous VT insertions (χ2 =13 .01 ,P<0 .01)and the nature of the tympanic cavity effusion(χ2 =7 .04 ,P<0 .01) .The proportion of perforation group about Goode - T ventilation tube ,history of previous VT insertions ,the frequency of tube (more than 3 times) ,mucus of the middle ear cavity were 58 .4% ,57 .3% ,66 .7% and 57 .9% respectively ,others had no significant difference between the two groups . The multivariate analysis showed that ,regardless of the ventilation tube ,the frequency of tube was the tympanic membrane perforation risk factor ;Goode-T tube increased the risk of perforation of tympanic membrane was 1 .637 times than Shepard tube(OR=1 .637 ,P<0 .01) .Conclusion Using the Goode - T type ventilation tube ,history of previous VT insertions ,the frequency of tube (more than 3 times) ,mucus of the middle ear cavity were four risk factors for persistence of a tympanic membrane perforation after VT insertion for secretory otitis media .
