OBJECTIVES: In this study, we investigate the prevalence of chronic otitis media (COM) in young men.
PATIENTS AND METHODS: Twenty thousand consecutive young men (mean age 22 years) who were under election for high performance military positions were examined by two otolaryngologists in the Military Hospital, İzmir. The otologic examination findings were noted. We evaluated the patients who have tympanic membrane perforation, retraction, adhesion, myringosclerosis and the patients who had underwent surgery before.
RESULTS: Three-hundred and fifty-five young men (1.77%) had COM. Other findings were retraction (n=66; 0.33%), adhesion (n=36; 0.18%), myringosclerosis (n=720; 3.6%) and cerumen (n=3200; 16%). We found out that five (0.025%) of the cases had radical mastoidectomy surgery and 16 (0.08%) of them had tympanoplasty.
CONCLUSION: The prevalence of COM in young men is 1.77%. Although our study has a limitation because all of our samples are young men, the study is unique due to its large sample size.
