Hearing Thresholds in Young Children With Otitis Media With Effusion With and Without Cleft Palate.
CONCLUSION: The hearing loss in children with CP±L was not more severe than among children with OME but without cleft palate; rather, at 12 months of age, the thresholds were significantly better in the CP±L-group than those in the group without cleft. The air conduction thresholds improved with age in both groups.
