Özet

Objective: Secretory otitis media (SOM) is a fluid collection in the middle ear space without general or local signs of acute infections or obvious symptoms. SOM is second common disease of ear after acute otitis media in childhood. Material and Method: In our study we evaluated 74 sample collected from 64 patients with transtimpanic aspiration. The samples were incubated in aerobic bacterial, anaerobic bacterial and fungal cultures. The grow of colonies and susceptibility level of antibiotics were evaluated with convantionel methods. Results: There was growth of (37.8%) of effusions. S. epidermidis (50%), H. influenzae unclassified (15%), M. catarrhalis (10%), P. aeruginosa (10%), S. aureus (5%), S. viridans (5%), Enterobacter spp. (5%), Trichoderma viride (5%) were isolated. We could not isolate any anaerob bacteria. However there is no significant antibiotic resistance. We can not exactly interpretation about antibiotic resistance because of insufficient number of isolated bacteria. Conclusion: SOM is an important health problem in childhood because of its influence over growing healthy of child. The antibiotics remain to be first choise in treatments of otitis media with effusions. Thus there is very important to know agents microbial and antibiotic susceptibility in assessment of treatment choise of SOM.
