The prevalence of chronic otitis media was studied in an urban and a rural community in southern Vietnam in 1995. A total of 3,300 children, aged from 6 months to 10 years, were selected randomly by taking every third child on the vaccination list. In this cross-sectional study, 453 ears were found to have chronic otitis media or sequelae otitidis, giving an overall prevalence of 6.86%. A total of 140 ears had perforations. Various attic changes were found in 73 ears and other chronic tympanic membrane changes, such as atrophy, tympanosclerosis and adhesions, in 219 ears. Cholesteatoma was seen in two ears.
