A classification of otitis media is proposed and the histopathological changes of otitis media with effusion are reviewed post mortem on two temporal bones. A case of adhesive otitis media is observed on temporal bone slides. The clinical and therapeutic aspect are examined and treatment guidelines are proposed.
