Histological Evidence of Adenoid Mast Cells Indicating a Role in Otitis Media with Effusion (OME)

Otitis media with effusion (OME) is an inflammation of the middle ear in which a collection of liquid is present in the middle ear space while the tympanic membrane is intact. The pathogenesis of otitis media is multifactorial which includes factors such as adenoids hypertrophy, infection (viral...

description Otitis media with effusion (OME) is an inflammation of the middle ear in which a collection of liquid is present in the middle ear space while the tympanic membrane is intact. The pathogenesis of otitis media is multifactorial which includes factors such as adenoids hypertrophy, infection (viral or bacteria), allergy, environment and social factors. The association between adenoid and OME has long been noted but the exact mechanism is still much debated. We studied the role of adenoid mast cells in the causation of OME.
