摘要：

Sex differences in patients having grommet operations in Scotland were analysed to provide further evidence on whether girls should be managed differently from boys. In children treated at less than one year, 64% were boys, but this proportion declined with age and, after the age of 13 years, became less than 50%. The median age at treatment and the repeat operation rate were similar for both sexes. Different management according to the sex of the patient does therefore not appear to be justified.
