Abstract

The present paper deals with rather rare burn injuries of the tympanic membrane and middle ear. Literary resources of this topic are scarce. On 36 thermal injuries of the ear, the conservative treatment results have been evaluated from the anatomical and functional points of view. The discussion is aimed at the mechanisms of injury, pathogenesis and results of treatment of middle ear burns. Importance of prevention is emphasized.
