Tympanostomy in young children with recurrent otitis media. A long-term follow-up study.
TL;DR: It is concluded that early tympanostomy is a safe procedure in young children with RAOM or OME, however, parents should be carefully informed of risks of post-tympanstomy otorrhoea and recurrent disease after insertion of ventilation tubes necessitating subsequent tube insertion, especially in children with OME.
