dc.description.abstractAims: The diagnostic techniques used in the diagnosis of lateral sinus thrombosis are invasive and pose a risk of stroke. For this reason, we aimed to evaluate the efficiency of Doppler ultrasonography, a simple, fast, and non-invasive technique in this field. Materials and methods: Patients presenting at our clinic with one-sided, chronic suppurative otitis media were included in the study. Internal jugular vein and internal carotid artery Doppler tests were conducted on the patients. The healthy ears of the patients were used as the control group. The values were compared statistically. Results: A total of 40 patients were included in the study 17 male (42.5%) and 23 female (57.5%). Seventeen patients had suppurative otitis media with cholesteatoma, and 23 patients had suppurative otitis media without cholesteatoma. According to Doppler ultrasonography parameters, no statistically significant differences were observed. However, when the chronic suppurative otitis media patients were compared to those without cholesteatoma, the internal jugular vein diameter was found to be reduced significantly in the group with cholesteatoma (p=0.047). Conclusion: The results of our study suggest that Doppler ultrasonography can be considered as a useful, fast, easy, and non-invasive method in the prognosis of cases with suspected lateral sinus thrombosis.en_US
