    Complicações intratemporais das otites médias
    (Associação Brasileira de Otorrinolaringologia e Cirurgia Cervicofacial, 2013-04-01) Maranhão, André Souza de Albuquerque [UNIFESP]; Andrade, José Santos Cruz de [UNIFESP]; Godofredo, Valéria Romero [UNIFESP]; Matos, Rafaella Caruso [UNIFESP]; Penido, Norma de Oliveira [UNIFESP]; Universidade Federal de São Paulo (UNIFESP)
    Otitis media (OM) is considered a potentially severe disease due to the risk of complications. OBJECTIVE: To establish the annual incidence of intratemporal complications (ITC) resulting from OM and to prospectively assess patients for epidemiological and clinical factors. METHOD: This prospective cohort study included patients admitted during one year at a university hospital diagnosed with intratemporal complications of OM. Patients were analyzed for age, gender, type of intratemporal complication, treatment, and clinical outcome. The overall incidence of complications and the specific incidence rates of each type of complication were determined. RESULTS: 1,816 patients were diagnosed with OM; 592 (33%) had chronic OM; 1224 (67%) had acute OM. Fifteen patients were diagnosed with OM ITC, adding up to an annual incidence of 0.8%. Nineteen diagnoses of ITC were made in 15 patients. Seven (36.8%) patients were diagnosed with labyrinthine fistula, five (26.3%) with mastoiditis, four (21.1%) with peripheral facial palsy, and three (15.8%) with labyrinthitis. CONCLUSION: The incidence of intratemporal complications remains significant when compared to the rates seen in developed countries. Chronic cholesteatomatous otitis media is the most frequent etiology of intratemporal complications. Labyrinthine fistula is the most common intratemporal complication.

    Estudo comparativo entre achados radiológicos e cirúrgicos na otite média crônica
    (Fundação Otorrinolaringologia, 2011-03-01) Prata, Anelise Abrahao Salge; Antunes, Marcos Luiz [UNIFESP]; Abreu, Carlos Eduardo Cesario De [UNIFESP]; Frazatto, Ricardo [UNIFESP]; Lima, Bruno Thieme [UNIFESP]; Universidade Federal de São Paulo (UNIFESP); faculdade de medicina do ABC; Hospital Estadual de Diadema
    INTRODUCTION: The chronic otitis media (COM) is a prevalent disease and the most frequent cause of indication to mastoidectomy. Many studies have evaluated the use of tomography (CT) of temporal bones for preoperative evaluation of COM and its indication in the preoperative approach is still controversial nowadays. OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the sensitivity of the clinical and radiological findings of COM according to the intraoperative surgical results and histopathological findings. METHOD: Transversal retrospective study through collection of record data of patients with COM submitted to mastoidectomy in the period from 2007 through 2008 in our service. RESULTS: From a total of 82 ears, 40.24% had cholesteatoma. The CT presented 72.73% of sensitivity in the identification of cholesteatoma, 56.67% in the identification of changes to the ossicular chain and 100% in that of erosion of the lateral semicircular canal. CONCLUSION: The clinical and radiological findings showed a high level sensitivity with intraoperative findings as regards to the presence of cholesteatoma, large changes of the ossicular chain and erosion of the lateral semicircular canal. For minor changes to the ossicular chain, the facial nerve canal and the tympanic tegmen they described low sensitivity.

    Volume equivalente: um estudo em indivíduos com otite média crônica
    (ABORL-CCF Associação Brasileira de Otorrinolaringologia e Cirurgia Cérvico-Facial, 2005-10-01) Alencar, Ana P. T. [UNIFESP]; Iorio, Maria Cecilia Martinelli [UNIFESP]; Morales, Douglas S. [UNIFESP]; Universidade Federal de São Paulo (UNIFESP)
    The equivalent ear canal volume ranges from 0.3ml to 1.0ml in children and from 0.65 to 1.75ml in adults. In subjects with chronic otitis media these values can be different, according to the disease status. AIM: To study the equivalent ear canal volume in 52 ears of patients with chronic otitis media with and without active infection. STUDY DESIGN: clinical prospective with transversal cohort. MATERIAL AND METHOD: The equivalent ear canal volume was obtained from 52 ears diagnosed with chronic otitis media with and without active infection and in age and gender matched control group. The study group with active infection was evaluated before and after clinical treatment. RESULTS: Equivalent ear canal volume mean for the studied groups with and without infection and for the control group was 2.86ml; 1.42ml and 0.80ml, respectively. The equivalent ear canal volume mean for the study group with infection prior and post clinical treatment was 1.42ml and 1.82ml, respectively. CONCLUSIONS: The Equivalent ear canal volume mean was higher in patients with Chronic Otitis Media. We did not observe variation of equivalent ear canal volume before and after clinical treatment.
