The objective of this work was to estimate from the clinical, economic, and social standpoints the efficacy of medical aid provided to the patients with chronic suppurative otitis media (CSOM) and concomitant pathology of the nasal cavity by means of the one-step surgical intervention. The study included a total of 208 patients presenting with CSOM of whom 108 ones were treated by the traditional multistage method and the remaining 108 by simultaneous rhinootosurgery. The latter approach was shown to be much more efficacious in terms of clinical, economic, and social considerations. |
