A Study of Bacterial Profile and Antibiotic Susceptibility Pattern of Chronic Suppurative Otitis Media (CSOM)
نویسندگان
چکیده
CSOM is mostly caused by bacteria, but fungi and virus can also be a cause of CSOM. The aerobic microorganisms most frequently isolated in CSOM are Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Staphylococcus aureus, Gram-negative organisms such as Proteus spp., Klebsiella spp., and Escherichia spp., Citrobacter species, Haemophilus influenzae, and Moraxella catarrhalis (Gül et al., 2006; Verhoeff et al., 2006; de Miguel Martínez et al., 2005). The most frequently isolated anaerobic organisms are Bacteroides spp. and Fusobacterium spp (de Miguel Martínez et al., 2005; Saini et al., 2005)
