Abstract
When studying the auditory function of patients suffering from unilateral chronic purulent otitis media for a long time, we noticed that along with hearing reduction in the diseased ear of the mixed type, there was often hearing reduction in the opposite ear of the neurosensory hearing loss type. These changes were even more pronounced when chronic purulent otitis media was combined with labyrinthitis. In patients aged 50 years and older, hearing loss in the opposite ear, exceeding age thresholds, was more frequent.
