Abstract

Chronic Otitis Media (COM) is a health condition characterized by long-term infection and inflammation in the middle ear. Commonly seen in children, this condition can lead to severe hearing loss and intracranial complications (such as brain abscess, meningitis, etc.). Antibiotics form the first line of treatment, while surgical intervention may be required in resistant cases. Surgical treatment is effective in clearing infected foci and preventing complications. Recent bibliometric analyses indicate an increase in academic publications related to COM, particularly since the 2000s, with research from various disciplines broadening the perspective on the topic. The annual distribution of publications has gained further momentum since 2020, likely due to increased interest during the pandemic. In bibliometric analysis, the most cited studies focus on pediatric surgery and treatment outcomes, examining the reliability of surgical interventions and pathological processes. Keyword co-occurrence analysis plays a crucial role in identifying thematic structures within the research field. In conclusion, COM research requires more multidisciplinary collaboration, and public awareness on this issue should be increased. Bibliometric analyses provide valuable contributions to advancing knowledge in this field and guiding clinical practices. These analyses will help pave the way for new developments in understanding the causes, effects, and treatments of chronic otitis media.
