[The acceleration of remission after exacerbation of chronic suppurative otitis media following functional-reconstructive operations on the middle ear].

This study had the objective to enhance the efficacy of the surgical treatment of the patients presenting with chronic suppurative otitis media by means of reduction of the time needed to achieve persistent remission of the disease in the framework of a complex of therapeutic and rehabilitative measures making possible the surgical intervention on the middle ear regardless of the activity of the inflammatory process and its severity. Sixty five patients with chronic suppurative otitis media were examined and treated to estimate the clinical efficiency of the proposed complex of therapeutic and rehabilitative measures. It is maintained that this complex allows to achieve the positive results of reconstructive and restorative surgery without waiting for the development of long-term remission.
