Effect of tympanostomy tube insertion or tympanocentesis on transnasal endoscopic adenoidectomy in the treatment of pediatric patients with secretory otitis media / 重庆医学

ABSTRACT

Objective To discuss the tympanic membrane puncture or tympanostomy tube under endotoscope combined with adenoidectomy under nasal endoscopy on the influence of invalid conservative treatment of pediatric secretory otitis media.Methods A total of 112 cases of secretory otitis media with invalid conservative treatment were selected in the department of otorhinolaryngology of children′s hospital of Nanjing Medical University from July 2013 to August 2015.They were divided into three groups,the group A of 38 cases(68 ears)underwent transnasal endoscopic pure adenoidectomy;the group B of 37 cases(60 ears)underwent transnasal endoscopic adenoidectomy combined with tympanocentesis;the group C of 37 cases(59 ears)underwent tympanostomy tube insertion.The clinical treatment effect,the period of middle ear effusion,postoperative recurrence and complication were observed and compared.Results The total effective rate of the 3 groups was improved after 3 months(P<0.05);the total effective rate in group B and group C at one week and 3 months after operation were higher than those of group A(P<0.05);and the total effective rate in group C at 3 months after operation was significantly higher than that of group B(P<0.05).The level of auditory brainstem evoked potential(ABR)and the latency of ABR wave Ⅰ latency were decreased at 1 year after operation(P<0.05);the ABR changes in group B and group C at 1 week and 1 year after operation were lower than those in group A(P<0.05).The incidence of recurrence rate and the period of middle ear effusion in group C were lower than those in group A and B(P<0.05).The incidence of complication of group A was lower than those of group B and group C(P<0.05).Conclusion Using tympanostomy tube combined with adenoidectomy under endoscope can improve the children with hearing,which not only can shorten the time of the middle ear effusion,but also effectively reduce the recurrence rate.
