ABSTRACT
Inflammation of middle ear with a liquid collection without signs of disease is named otitis media with effusion (OME).
objective. To determine the percent and type of microorganisms isolated in children with otitis media with effusion.
material and methods. A sample of effusion from patients who were subjects to insertion of tympanostomy tubes was collected. Cultures for aerobic bacteria were made.
results. 22 children were studied in whom 36 tympanostomy tubes were inserted. All patients had a complete vaccination schedule. Among patients with tympanostomy there were 12 positive cultures with isolates of
Klebsiella pneumoniae, Staphylococcus epidermidis, Micrococcus sp, Staphylococcus auricularis.
conclusion. All isolates correspond to contaminants and are microorganisms not related with OME.
