MYRINGOTOMY
Middle ear effusion (MEE) or fluid in the middle ear cavities are is a common occurrence in children. Many do respond to medical treatment. However some of them do not respond to medical line of management and the fluid in the middle ear has to be drained by placing an incision on the ear drum and aspirating the contents of the middle ear using a suction apparatus. The opening thus created in the ear drum is known as Myringotomy. Some of them will have to have aeration tubes inserted in order to keep the middle ear aerated for a longer period of time. These aeration tubes are known as tympanostomy tubes.
