Histological evidence of adenoid mast cells indicating a role in otitis media with effusion (OME).
Masters thesis, Universiti Sains Malaysia.
Abstract
'Otitis media with effusion' (OME) ialah radang telinga tengah di mana terdapat
koleksi cecair di telinga tengah sedangkan gegendang telinga tidak bertubang.
Penyebab otitis media berkemungkinan pelbagai termasuk hipertropi adenoid,
jangkitan (virus atau bacteria), alahan, alam sekitar dan faktor sosial.
Hubungan antara adenoid dan OME telah lama dikaitkan tetapi mekanisma
sebenar terus dibahaskan. Kami mengkaji peranan sel mas adenoid dalam
penyebab OME.
Otitis media with effusion (OME) is an inflammation of the middle ear in which a
collection of liquid is present in the middle ear space while the tympanic
membrane is intact. The pathogenesis of otitis media is multifactorial which
includes factors such as adenoids hypertrophy, infection (viral or bacteria),
allergy, environment and social factors. The association between adenoid and
OME has long been noted but the exact mechanism is still much debated. We
studied the role of adenoid mast cells in the causation of OME.
