1. Developing otitis media : experimental studies in particular regarding inflammatory changes in the tympanic membrane
Sammanfattning : Otitis media (OM), one of the commonest of childhood diseases, causes much suffering. OM exists in a variety of forms, two of which are acute otitis media (AOM) and otitis media with effusion (OME). LÄS MER
2. Transmyringeal middle ear ventilation : an experimental approach to evaluation of its benefits and consequences
Sammanfattning : A prerequisite for a functioning middle ear is an air-filled middle ear cavity. Aeration of the middle ear cavity is controlled by the Eustachian tube. Dysfunction of the Eustachian tube has long been acknowledged as a significant etiological factor in disorders of the middle ear, especially middle ear effusions. LÄS MER
3. Healing of tympanic membrane perforations : an experimental study
Sammanfattning : Most acute tympanic membrane perforations heal spontaneously without any residual complication, whereas a fraction transforms into a chronic perforation. The current treatment of a chronic perforation is surgical repair, which is a costly, time consuming and uncomfortable procedure particularly for the pediatric patients. LÄS MER
4. The effects of plasminogen deficiency on the healing of tympanic membrane perforations
Sammanfattning : The healing of tympanic membrane (TM) perforations is a complex wound healing process including inflammation, migration of keratinocytes and tissue remodelling. Most TM perforations in human heal spontaneously, however some perforations become chronic, and the reason to why is still largely unknown. LÄS MER
5. Topical anesthesia of the tympanic membrane : an experimental animal study
Sammanfattning : Myringotomy plays an important role in otological therapy. The procedure requires an efficient anesthesia, which can be obtained without general anesthesia. However, the use of local anesthetics on the tympanic membrane (TM) has been abandoned in many places, as general anesthesia has been readily available. LÄS MER
