Objective & Hypothesis:Objective: In this study, we aimed to evaluate the co-ex-istence and prevalence of hypothyroidism in patients withotitis media with efusion (OME) and to determine thepossible relationship between OME and hypothyroidism.Methods: Te subject group consisted of 46 paediatricpatients (26 boys, 20 girls), ranging in age from 4 to 14years (mean age±SD 7.78±2.86 years), who were treatedin the department of otorhinolaryngology for OME;the control group composed of 30 healthy children (20boys, 10 girls), ranging in age from 3 to 14 years (meanage±SD 7.20±2.86 years).
📊
Key Findings & Data:Triiodothyronine (Free T3),thyroxin (free T4), and thyroid-stimulating hormone(TSH) values of 46 children who were treated for OME,in addition to 30 healthy children, were evaluated.

Abstract

Objective: In this study, we aimed to evaluate the co-ex-istence and prevalence of hypothyroidism in patients withotitis media with efusion (OME) and to determine thepossible relationship between OME and hypothyroidism.Methods: Te subject group consisted of 46 paediatricpatients (26 boys, 20 girls), ranging in age from 4 to 14years (mean age±SD 7.78±2.86 years), who were treatedin the department of otorhinolaryngology for OME;the control group composed of 30 healthy children (20boys, 10 girls), ranging in age from 3 to 14 years (meanage±SD 7.20±2.86 years). Triiodothyronine (Free T3),thyroxin (free T4), and thyroid-stimulating hormone(TSH) values of 46 children who were treated for OME,in addition to 30 healthy children, were evaluated. Results: Seven patients (15.2%) in the OME group, andone patient (3.3%) in the control group had subclinicalhypothyroidism marked only by serum TSH elevations.All of the children in this study, regardless of whetherfrom the subject or control group, had normal serumfree T3 and free T4 levels. Tere was no signifcant dif-ference between subject and control groups (p>0.05).Conclusion: Although there was no statistically signif-cant diference between subject and control groups inthis study, further studies with larger patient groups areneeded to investigate the role of hypothyroidism in theaetiology of OME.

Özet

Amaç: Bu çalışmada, seröz otitis media (SOM) olanhastalarda hipotiroidi birlikteliğinin saptanması veSOM ile hipotiroidi arasındaki olası ilişkinin belirlen- mesi amaçlanmıştır. Yöntemler: Çalışma grubu, SOM nedeniyle KulakBurun Boğaz Kliniğinde tedavi edilen 4-14 yaşlarında(ortalama yaş±SD, 7,78±2,86 yıl) 46 çocuk (26 erkek,20 kız) hastadan oluşuyordu. Kontrol grubu ise 3-14yaşlarında (ortalama yaş±SD, 7,20±2,86 yaş) 30 sağlık- lı çocuk hastadan (20 erkek, 10 kız) oluşuyordu. SOMnedeniyle tedavi edilen 46 çocuk hasta ve 30 sağlıklıçocukta serum serbest T3, serbest T4 ve TSH seviyelerideğerlendirildi. Bulgular: SOM grubunda yedi hastada (%15,2) ve kon-trol grubunda bir hastada (%3,3) sadece TSH yüksekli-ği olan subklinik hipotiroidi izlendi. Çalışma grubu vekontrol grubu olmak üzere çalışmadaki tüm çocuklarda,serum serbest T3 ve serbest T4 seviyeleri normal olarakizlendi. Çalışma ve kontrol grubu arasında anlamlı birfark izlenmedi (p>0,05).Sonuç: Bu çalışmada, çalışma ve kontrol grubu arasındaanlamlı bir fark bulunmamakla birlikte hipotiroidinin,SOM etyolojisindeki rolünü araştırmak için daha büyükhasta gruplarında çalışmalara ihtiyaç vardır.
