title: [Correction of vestibular disorders in patients with otitis media purulenta chronica complicated by labyrinthitis].
abstract: A vestibulogic examination was made in 66 patients with otitis media purulenta chronica complicated with labyrinthitis. The patients were divided into two groups: group 1 received surgical treatment in an acute period of labyrinthitis, group 2 was treated conservatively with delayed operation. The patients were examined at admission, 2 weeks, 1, 3, 6 and 12 months after the treatment. It was found that compensation of the vestibular function in group 1 took place 6 months after temporal bone surgery, in group 2-9 months after delayed operation, i.e. 1 years after hospitalization.
