Methods We retrospectively analyzed the audiologic data of 382 patients diagnosed with chronic suppurative otitis media treated in our hospital from August 2005 to December 2008. Results The number of male chronic suppurative otitis media patients was more than female patients, and single ear infections are more than infections of both ears. The onset of the disease could be at any age. Most of the patients had a moderate conductive hearing loss. All kinds of tympanogram were found,and ear canal volume of the patients was enlarged. Conclusion Chronic suppurative otitis media is a common disease of the ear, which needs timely treatment, and audiological tests are important in guiding treatment plans and assessing prognosis.
Objective To assess the effectiveness and safety of adenoidectomy on otitis media with effusion (OME) in children. Methods Electronic databases were searched including Medline (1966-2001), EMbase (1974-2001), the Cochrane Controlled Trials Register (CCTR), Chinese Biomedical Database (CBM, 1989-2001). Five Chinese otolaryngology journals were handsearched. References of eligible studies were also screened for inclusion. Selection criteria were restricted to randomized controlled trials comparing adenoidectomy with other treatments in patients with OME in children. At least two reviewers independently assessed trial quality and extracted data. RevMan 4.1 was used for statistical analysis. Results Of the 248 literatures identified, 13 trials with 1 430 patients were eligible and were included in the systematic review. Overall, the methodological quality of the included trials was high, all from developed countries. None of the trials showed that the effects of adenoidectomy better than those of myringotomy and no treatments for OME in children. Four trials comparing adenoidectomy with grommets showed that the effects of grommets were better than those of adenoidectomy. Ten trials described post-surgical bleeding, velopharyngeal incompetence and nasopharyngeal stenosis. Conclusions At present, there is no evidence to either ascertain that adenoidectomy is better than other treatments for OME, or to suggest which type of surgery is the most effective one. Current trials indicate that early administration of adenoidectomy concomitant with grommets might be the most appropriate therapy for OME in children who fail to response to drug treatment, if multiple risk factors exist.
Otitis media is one of the common ear diseases, and its accurate diagnosis can prevent the deterioration of conductive hearing loss and avoid the overuse of antibiotics. At present, the diagnosis of otitis media mainly relies on the doctor's visual inspection based on the images fed back by the otoscope equipment. Due to the quality of otoscope equipment pictures and the doctor's diagnosis experience, this subjective examination has a relatively high rate of misdiagnosis. In response to this problem, this paper proposes the use of faster region convolutional neural networks to analyze clinically collected digital otoscope pictures. First, through image data enhancement and preprocessing, the number of samples in the clinical otoscope dataset was expanded. Then, according to the characteristics of the otoscope picture, the convolutional neural network was selected for feature extraction, and the feature pyramid network was added for multi-scale feature extraction to enhance the detection ability. Finally, a faster region convolutional neural network with anchor size optimization and hyperparameter adjustment was used for identification, and the effectiveness of the method was tested through a randomly selected test set. The results showed that the overall recognition accuracy of otoscope pictures in the test samples reached 91.43%. The above studies show that the proposed method effectively improves the accuracy of otoscope picture classification, and is expected to assist clinical diagnosis.
Objective To evaluate the diagnosis value of temporal Done high-resolution computed tornography (HRCT) in cholesteatoma. Methods There were 30 causes that had received the mastoid surgery because of cholesteatoma. Each patient’s mastoid plain films (Schuller’s and Mayer’s ) and HRCT had been taken and compared with each other and surgical findings and evaluated with health economic evaluation methods. Results The sensitivity rate in diagnosing cholesteatoma with HRCF was much higher than that with mastoid film (Plt;0.005). The more important benefit with HRCT was that it can afford the detail information in ear such as the ossicular chain, facial nerve canal, tympanic sinus, etc. which were basis for otologist in surgery to remove the focus thoroughly and reconstruct the middle ear function at the same time. In the view of health economic evaluation, HRCT is also much better than mastoid X-ray film. Conclusion HRCT should replace masloid Schuller’s and Mayer’s film in diagnosis cholesteatoma and HRCT should use as ordinary examination in chronic otitis media.
