Biofilms and chronic otitis media: an initial exploration into the role of biofilms in the pathogenesis of chronic otitis media
American Journal of Otolaryngology, 08/31/09
Hoa M et al. – Adenoids removed from patients with OME were characterized by distinctly different percentage of biofilm mucosal surface area coverage, with significantly more biofilm presence than OSA patients but significantly less biofilm presence than RAOM patients. These results suggest nasopharyngeal biofilms may play a different role in the pathogenesis of OME and that this clinical entity may be more multifactorial in nature.
