Chronic otitis media (COM) is a prolonged inflammatory process involving the tissues of the middle ear cavity, often characterized by hearing loss, purulent discharge, and tympanic membrane damage. This article highlights modern conservative and surgical treatment methods for COM. Additionally, it examines therapeutic strategies for complicated cases such as labyrinthitis, intracranial infections, and facial nerve paralysis. Timely and comprehensive treatment not only reduces the consequences of the disease but also significantly improves the patient’s quality of life.
