| abstractText | (1) The details described below have evidenced that the tubing therapy is an influential treatment for the recurrent infant suppurative otitis media. The tube with a beveled head and split shank is very convenient and effective for the treatment since it is not only easily inserted but also easily removed, preventing it from migration into the tympanum. (2) The treatment must promote the drainage of discharges through the infant auditory tubes which are thick and short and improve the ventilation of the middle ear cavity half permanently. (3) According to the author's experience, the spontaneous extrusion of the ideally set tube after 2 or 3 months is a sign of a perfect cure of this disease. |
