Abstract
Myringotomy and tube procedures provide effective relief in the majority of cases of serous otitis media, but at least 14% of children are estimated to have recurrence. These children may be at risk for language delays that have been suspected of causing later language problems. After three months' duration of serous otitis, a language evaluation should be given the infant or child. Any language delay should be promptly treated with a home language stimulation program and, in more extreme cases, there should be a consideration of hearing aid use.
