Objective: The objective of the study was to find out the microbiota of cases of chronic suppurative otitis media and its radiological correlation in disease severity.
Methodology: 50 patients with CSOM were prospectively studied. Swabs were taken and cultured for bacteria. HRCT temporal bone was done and microbiota relation with severity was studied.
Result: We found the predominant organism to be staphylococcus aureus (44%) followed by psedumonas (22%). On radiological correlation maximum erosive property was seen with pseudomonas followed by methicillin sensitive staphylococcus aureus and Coagulase negative staphylococcus aureus.
