Han H, et al. - Researchers sought to summarize the characteristics of laryngopharyngeal reflux (LPR) in patients with chronic otitis media. A simultaneous LPR was seen in most patients with chronic otitis media. Under a laryngoscope, the LPR in these patients manifested mainly by a positive RFS and not by symptoms of the larynx and pharynx. Therefore it was demonstrated that in the pathogenesis of COM, LPR could be an important factor and a significant role in the management of chronic otitis media could be played by anti-reflux treatment.
