Abstract

Background: Chronic suppurative otitis media (CSOM) is a persistent inflammation of the middle ear that often coexists with nasal pathologies. This study evaluates the role of nasal surgeries in improving outcomes in CSOM patients.

Objective: To assess the efficacy of nasal surgeries in patients with CSOM and determine their impact on middle ear disease resolution.

Methods: A prospective observational study was conducted including patients with CSOM and concomitant nasal pathologies. Clinical evaluation, radiological studies, and surgical interventions were analyzed.

Results: Nasal surgeries significantly improved Eustachian tube function and reduced the recurrence of middle ear infections. Patients showed improvement in hearing outcomes and a reduction in ear discharge episodes.

Conclusion: Nasal surgeries play a vital role in managing CSOM, particularly in cases associated with nasal pathologies, thereby improving overall prognosis.
