“…Those studies reported higher complication rates among children with VTI than among those without, over the short term (<5 years of follow-up) [44,46,61,66,72] as well as long term (9-21 years of observation) [62,67]. All results were statistically significant; however, differences were not calculated in two of the studies [62,72].…”

“…Several prospective [51,59,60] and retrospective [20,44,46,52,[61][62][63][64][65][66][67][68] cohort studies evaluated hearing outcomes. Among these cohort studies, several studies compared VTI with non-VTI (i.e., myringotomy alone, hearing aids, watchful waiting) [44,60,62,[64][65][66][67][68].…”

“…Among these cohort studies, several studies compared VTI with non-VTI (i.e., myringotomy alone, hearing aids, watchful waiting) [44,60,62,[64][65][66][67][68]. It has been reported that the improvements in hearing afforded by VTI over the short term (within 18 months after VTI) are more pronounced than those of myringotomy, watchful waiting, or HA [64][65][66]. Potsic et al found that, compared with CLP children without VTI for OME, those with VTI had a lower percentage of ears presenting hearing loss over the short term (less than 5 years) [68].…”

“…Moreover, compared with conservative management, most studies have shown that VTI is beneficial to hearing recovery over the short as well as long term [60,[64][65][66]68]. There remains a belief that early VTI at the time of palatoplasty is beneficial; however [69], there is little evidence indicating the optimal timing for grommet insertion.…”

“…Several retrospective cohort studies compared children with and without VTI (i.e., hearing aids or watchful waiting) with regard to post-VTI complications [44,46,61,62,66,67,72]. Those studies reported higher complication rates among children with VTI than among those without, over the short term (<5 years of follow-up) [44,46,61,66,72] as well as long term (9-21 years of observation) [62,67].…”

The condition of cleft lip/palate (CLP) in children is psychologically stressful for family members and debilitating for the patients themselves. These children must undergo a series of major invasive surgeries following birth, including cleft lip repair surgery, cleft palate repair surgery, bone grafting surgery, and dental implant surgery. Unfortunately, the clinical significance of otitis media with effusion (OME), a complication associated with CLP, is often overlooked, and very few studies have explored this condition in depth. This chapter reviews pathogenesis, clinical manifestations, consequences, examination, and diagnosis related to OME in children with CLP. Controversies surrounding the treatment of OME in CLP children are also discussed. We also provide a flowchart for management guidance in OME in children with CLP.

Compared with adult cleft patients who did not receive ventilation tubes, our patients had a similar low incidence of eardrum perforations but a higher incidence of cholesteatomas while hearing loss occurred less often. Whether the higher incidence of cholesteatomas is caused iatrogenically or due to a longer follow-up period remains unclear. Whether the use of long-lasting ventilation tubes affects the incidence of cholesteatomas must be proved in further studies.
