The characteristics, risk factors, microbial distributions and effective treatment regimens for Chronic suppurative otitis media (CSOM) patients intractable to empirical therapy were analyzed.Adult CSOM patients of China Medical University Hospital from 2018 to 2020 were included. Subjects of refractory and non-refractory groups were investigated for characteristics of age, sex, nation, comorbidities, otomycosis, and associated complications. Risk factors, microbiology distributions, and treatment regimens were analyzed.Twenty-six refractory patients (55.0 ± 17.7 years) and 66 non-refractory patients (54.1 ± 13.7 years) were studied. A significantly higher rate of otomycosis and CSOM complications was observed in refractory group than in non-refractory one (73.1% vs. 36.4%; p = 0.002; 57.7% vs. 10.6%, p |
