Extracranial Complications

Objectives: To see the way of presentation of extracranial complication, relationship between socio-economic conditions and extracranial complication of chronic suppuration otitis media.Methods: This is a cross-sectional study carried out in Department of Otolaryngology Head and Neck Surgery, Sir Salimullah Medical College & Mitford Hospital and Dhaka Medical College Hospital from 1st July 2009 to 30th June 2010. The diagnosis was made by detailed history, clinical examination & investigation. Analyzed data was presented by various tables.Results: In this study male (59%), lower class people (57%), age 11-20 years, rural (66%) and less educated patients were more affected. Having bath in the ponds and rivers suffers more. Clinical presentation of CSOM with complications were aural discharge (100%), hearing impairment (94%), post auricular swelling (15%), pain in the ear (21%), postauricular discharge (27%) and mass in the EAC (12%). Here found aural discharge mostly malodorous and scanty, attic perforation and cholesteatoma. Post auricular abscess most common (47%) extracranial complication and labyrinthitis was the lowest (3%). Atticoantral variety was more common (89%) than that of tubotympanic disease (11%).Conclusion: From the review of the series we found the frequency & types of extracranial complications arising from CSOM and known the current epidemiological data. It can produce awareness among all level of medical practitioners and enhance prompt diagnosis and treatment.J Bangladesh Coll Phys Surg 2016; 34(1): 3-8

Objectives: To evaluate the type and degree of hearing loss in CSOM and also to find out any relationship between the hearing loss and disease duration. Methods: This was a cross sectional study which was carried out in the departments of Otolaryngology and Head-Neck Surgery of BSMMU and Dhaka Medical College Hospital during the period of July’2011 to December’2011. A total 80 cases of CSOM were collected. Patient below the age of 5 years and patients above the age of 50 years were excluded from this study. The diagnosis of CSOM was established on the basis of clinical examination- otoscopy and tunning fork test. Pure tone audiogram (PTA) was done for hearing assessment. Thus, 80 cases of CSOM were collected with their PTA reports of 117 ears. Results: The study included 80 patients of CSOM, of them 60 were with tubo-tympanic type and 20 were with attico-antral disease. Highest number of patients was in 2nd decade in both type of disease. 44.79% of ears of tubo-tympanic type were associated with mild (26-40 dB) hearing loss and 42.85% attico-antral variety was with moderate (41-55 dB) hearing loss. Conductive type of hearing loss was common in both types of disease. 98% of ears in tubotympanic and 81% of ears in attico-antral disease had conductive hearing loss. Mixed type (2.08%) of hearing loss was found in tubo-tympanic disease. Attico-antral disease was also associated with mixed (14.28%) and SNHL (4.76%). Conclusion: The above study revealed that hearing loss in CSOM is mostly conductive in nature rarely sensorineural in type. Bangladesh J Otorhinolaryngol; April 2017; 23(1): 59-66

Introduction: This study aimed to compare the clinico-pathological features of the tubotympanic and atticoantral variety of chronic suppurative otitis media (CSOM).Methods: This was a cross sectional observational study conducted in the department of Otolaryngology – Head & Neck Surgery, Bangabandhu Sheikh Mujib Medical University (BSMMU) and Dhaka Medical College Hospital (DMCH), Dhaka, Bangladesh. The study was done over a period of six months and a total of 60 cases were selected. In group A 30 cases of CSOM tubotympanic variety were included while in group B 30 cases of atticoantral variety of CSOM were selected. The two groups were compared with regard to their clinical presentations, the type and degree of hearing loss and their associated complications by taking a detailed history followed by clinical examination and doing the relevant investigations.Results: In group A, the patients presented with a profuse non smelly discharge. All had a central perforation and majority had mild conductive hearing loss. There were no associated complications. In group B, the aural discharge were foul smelling and scanty. The perforations were 66% in the attic while 33.3% had marginal perforations. The hearing loss was mainly conductive in nature but in group B it’s more severe in degree and also there were more associated severe to profound sensori-neural hearing loss. There were also associated extracranial and intracranial complications in group B patients.Conclusion: The atticoantral variety of CSOM is associated with a foul smelling scanty discharge with severe hearing loss and complications than the tubotympanic variety of CSOM. Therefore early detection becomes essential especially in the primary care setting for appropriate referral to higher centers for better management DOI:http://dx.doi.org/10.3329/bjo.v18i2.11991 Bangladesh J Otorhinolaryngol 2012; 18(2): 138-144
