Complete Remission of Severe Eosinophilic Otitis Media With Dupilumab: A Case Report

xlomafota13 shared this article with you from Inoreader Complete Remission of Severe Eosinophilic Otitis Media With Dupilumab: A Case Report Via The Laryngoscope Eosinophilic otitis media (EOM) is a difficult-to-treat otitis media (OM) characterized by eosinophilic accumulation in the middle ear mucosa and secretion. Associated sensorineural hearing loss can eventually lead to (functional) deafness. EOM is strongly associated with type 2 inflammation driven respiratory disease, i.e. asthma and chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyps (CRSwNP), for which biological treatment is available. This case report discusses a patient suffering from EOM with severe mixed hearing loss, nearing functional deafness. Dupilumab treatment resulted in complete and enduring remission of the EOM, enabling adequate hearing rehabilitation. Concurrent control of the comorbid asthma and CRSwNP was obtained.
