Abstract

This collection of research highlights key aspects of pediatric otitis media management, focusing on tympanoplasty, its advancements, and related conditions. It covers surgical techniques, graft materials, long-term outcomes, and the impact of OME on child development. The role of biofilms, prophylactic antibiotics, cholesteatoma, and the gut microbiome are also explored, alongside diagnostic imaging modalities. The collective findings underscore the importance of early intervention and refined treatment strategies for optimizing hearing and developmental outcomes in children.
