The pathogens profile in children with otitis media with effusion and adenoid hypertrophy 2017-02-23 .txt text/plain 4243 209 45 OBJECTIVES: To evaluate the presence of viruses and bacteria in middle ear and adenoids of patients with and without otitis media with effusion (OME). METHODS: Adenoid samples and middle ear washes (MEW) were obtained from children with OME associated with adenoid hypertrophy undergoing adenoidectomy and tympanostomy, and compared to those obtained from patients undergoing cochlear implant surgery, as a control group. Therefore, the present study was carried out to compare the detection of common respiratory viruses and bacteria in adenoids and middle ear fluid in children with OME and in controls. In our study, we used a sensitive method to detect nucleic acid of a comprehensive panel of respiratory viruses and bacteria to compare the microbial colonization of adenoid and its correspondence in the middle ear in both OME children and controls. Concluding, in children with OME and adenoid hypertrophy we observed higher detection rates of potentially pathogenic bacteria, but not respiratory viruses, by real-time PCR in middle ear samples, as compared to control patients without adenoid hypertrophy. ./cache/cord-323133-gdg50omp.txt ./txt/cord-323133-gdg50omp.txt
