[Rehabilitation of patients with chronic purulent otitis media].
Among 4200 patients of ENT clinic with otitis, 868 had chronic otitis media purulenta (COMP). Epi- and mesoepitympanitis developed in 272 of them. Exacerbation of COMP was treated locally with drugs immobilized on sorbents and new-generation medicines--ofloxacin and roxitromycin. Complicated epi- and mesoepitympanitis need surgical treatment. Special attention should be given to complete removal of all the affected tissues and postoperative control over wound healing. The course of healing can be evaluated by changes in cytological picture of the wound surface. 255 radical operations were performed. A complete postoperative epidermisation failed only in 16 (7.3%) patients.
