Studies relating chronic otitis media and language disorders in children have not reported consistent findings.

We carried out the first selective study aimed at discerning the role of chronic right otitis media in children less than 3 years of age in language development.

A total of 35 children were studied using a full linguistic protocol, auditory brainstem responses, and middle latency responses.

Twelve children had a history of chronic exclusive right otitis media.

Seventeen age-matched children were selected as controls.

Also, three children having a history of chronic left otitis media were compared with three age-matched controls.

Linguistic tests showed significant differences between patients and controls in phonetic, phonological, and syntax scores but not semantics.

Correlation studies between linguistic scores and auditory evoked responses in the whole cohort showed a significant coefficient in phonetic and phonological domains.

These results emphasize the causative effect of right ear chronic otitis media and indicate that it mainly impairs phonetic and phonological coding of sounds, which may have implications for prophylactic treatment of at-risk children.
