Otitis media with effusions (OME) can lead to significant hearing loss in childhood. Although previous studies have shown that bacterial DNA is present in a significant percentage of effusions sterile by culture, whether the DNA represents viable organisms or 'fossilized remains' is unknown. The aim of the present study was the determination of Streptococcus pneumonia, Moraxella catarrhalis and Haemophilus influenza in the clinical materials from OME. For this purpose, effusion samples aspirated from ...
