ABSTRACT
Out of 160 ears in 80 children with enlarged adenoids included in this study, 12 ears had scretory otitis media. As a result we could not conclude that adenoid mass is a definite cause of Eustachian dysfunction leading to secretory otitis media. Adenoidectomy alone does not improve the condition. Adenoidectomy for children should be performed on its own merits as an obstructive or infective lesion and not necessarily as treatment for secretory otitis media
