| Abstract: | A complex vestibulologic examination of 131 patients with otitis media purulenta chronica (OMPC) was made. The patients were divided into groups and subgroups basing on the course of OMPC and presence or absence of subjective vestibular disorders. Vestibular function was assessed in various OMPC forms. Vestibular abnormalities were found in all the examinees. Therefore, all OMPC patients should be examined vestibulologically for early detection of initial, subclinical changes of the inner ear vestibular apparatus and decision on treatment policy. |
