Aural tuberculosis: a series of 25 patients

Abstract
Twenty-five patients with thirty ears affected by tuberculosis of the middle ear cleft were diagnosed and treated at Groote Schuur Hospital, Cape Town, during the years 1972 to 1983. This series is a sequel to the series of 1967 to 1971 and reported by Sellars and Seid (1973). The classical disease presentation will be reviewed and compared to that found in our patients. The modern trends in diagnosis and management will be discussed. The emphasis is on early diagnosis and treatment in an eminently curable disease.
