Abstract
Down's syndrome has been associated with hearing loss and otitis media. Because of difficulty in examination, however, there have been few detailed otologic studies on this population. An understanding of the nature and frequency of ear disease in Down's syndrome is important, since it is common and occurs in more than one in every 600 live births.Keywords
