Abstract:
OBJECTIVE:To propose the concept of rhinogenic otitis media and explore its pathomechanism through analyzing the diagnosis and treatment on secretory otitis media caused by unhealthy nasal cavity structure.
METHOD:Conservative treatment and correlative operation under nasoscope were undertaken in 176 otitis media patients with unhealthy nasal cavity structure.
RESULT:Of 176 cases, 156 cases recovered completely (88.64%), 18 cases got effective treatment (10.23%), and 2 cases got ineffective treatment (1.14%).
CONCLUSION:One important cause of the secretory otitis media is unhealthy nasal cavity structure, so correcting the unhealthy nasal cavity structure is the main ways to treat rhinogenic otitis media.
