Abstract:
:Six full-term neonatal temporal bones, with meconium contaminated amniotic fluid aspiration of varying degrees, were serially sectioned at 20 microm and every tenth section was stained by hematoxylin eosin and mounted on slides. All stained sections were studied, the data recorded and relevant details of all compartments photographed. In addition, four normal neonate temporal bones were studied, one by serial sectioning and three by microdissection. The lateral incudomalleal and tensor folds were present in all, membrane defects in the tensor fold were seen in two normal ears. Three ears in the aspiration group had much fetal tissue present rendering Prussak's space small. Four ears with aspiration had remnants of incus intercrural (medial) folds. The amniotic fluid cellular content (AFCC) was sparse or nonexistent in the supratubal recess, Prussak's space and hypotympanum. It concentrated to the areas around the stapes, to sinus tympani and round window niche, to lower lateral attic and posterior pouch, medial attic and in lesser amounts to superior attic, mastoid antrum and air cells. Massive amounts of AFCC in tympanic isthmus and posterior pouch may lead to formation of granulation tissue and blockage of the aeration pathways to attic proper and to Prussak's space. These changes may initiate the development of chronic secretory otitis media in infants.
