Some Problems Concerning the Prognosis and Treatment of Adhesive and Secretory Otitis

Abstract

Three questions to the lectures:

Does with adhesive otitis the mastoid usually appear as a badly pneumatized structure?

After a meato-antromia closure of the operatively opened aditus often takes place.

Can by this operation a more constantly functioning air-hole be provided for?

Will in cases of badly pneumatized mastoids, the ordinary X-ray treatment of the Eustachian tubes possibly increase the stenosis?
