Effects of Large-Bore Middle Ear Ventilation Tubes
Keyword(s):
Patients with chronic otitis media that did not respond to conventional treatment were studied for the types and incidence of complications from the use of large-bore tubes inserted into their ears. The most common complication was otorrhea (41%, 50 of 123 ears). Permanent perforation occurred in 25% (17/68 ears). Use of large-bore tubes proved effective and continues to be indicated in certain conditions of chronic otitis media that are refractory to other forms of treatment.
