Patients underwent examination with flexible nasopharyngoscopy for adenoid hypertrophy. An otorhinolaryngologist examined all children on both ears using an otoscope and tested with tympanometry.

Adenoid vegetation was present in 58 patients (9.8%) and was not detected in 531 patients (90.2%). We found serous otitis media in 94 (15.9%) patients. We obtained Type A tympanogram in 47 (81%) of 58 patients with adenoid vegetation, 6 (10.3%) Type B, and 5 (8.6%) Type C. When comparing 58 patients with adenoid vegetation with 538 patients without adenoid vegetation for serous otitis media, the frequency was not statistically significant (p\u2009&gt;\u20090.05).<\/jats:p>\n                  <jats:p>Conclusion\u2003We believe that in children without any ear, nose, and throat complaints, it is possible to detect serous otitis media with adenoid vegetation. Thus, pediatric patients should undergo screening at regular intervals.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1055\/s-0036-1584362","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2016,6,3]],"date-time":"2016-06-03T19:14:01Z","timestamp":1464981241000},"page":"161-164","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":5,"title":["Frequency of Serous Otitis Media in Children without Otolaryngological Symptoms"],"prefix":"10.1055","volume":"21","author":[{"given":"Murat","family":"Kocyigit","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Otolaryngology, Kanuni Sultan S\u00fcleyman Education and Research Hospital, Istanbul, Turkey"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Safiye","family":"Ortekin","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Otolaryngology, Kanuni Sultan S\u00fcleyman Education and Research Hospital, Istanbul, Turkey"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Taliye","family":"Cakabay","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Otolaryngology, Kanuni Sultan S\u00fcleyman Education and Research Hospital, Istanbul, Turkey"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Guven","family":"Ozkaya","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Biostatistics, Uluda\u011f University School of Medicine, Bursa, Turkey"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Selin","family":"Bezgin","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Biostatistics, Uluda\u011f University School of Medicine, Bursa, Turkey"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Mustafa","family":"Adali","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Otolaryngology, Bir Nefes Private Hospital, Luleburgaz, Turkey"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"194","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2016,6,3]]},"container-title":["International Archives of Otorhinolaryngology"],"original-title":[],"language":"en","link":[{"URL":"http:\/\/www.thieme-connect.de\/products\/ejournals\/pdf\/10.1055\/s-0036-1584362.pdf","content-type":"unspecified","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"similarity-checking"}],"deposited":{"date-parts":[[2019,5,6]],"date-time":"2019-05-06T14:39:21Z","timestamp":1557153561000},"score":1,"resource":{"primary":{"URL":"http:\/\/www.thieme-connect.de\/DOI\/DOI?10.1055\/s-0036-1584362"}},"subtitle":[],"short-title":[],"issued":{"date-parts":[[2016,6,3]]},"references-count":0,"journal-issue":{"issue":"02","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2017,3,31]]},"published-print":{"date-parts":[[2017,4]]}},"URL":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1055\/s-0036-1584362","relation":{},"ISSN":["1809-9777","1809-4864"],"issn-type":[{"value":"1809-9777","type":"print"},{"value":"1809-4864","type":"electronic"}],"subject":[],"published":{"date-parts":[[2016,6,3]]}}}
