In a selected sample of patients affected by juvenile rheumatoid arthritis (JRA) little is known about middle ear involvement, even though many synovial joints are affected. Multifrequency tympanometry was used to measure admittance, conductance, susceptance and phase angle at different probe frequencies and resonant frequencies. In all, 35 children with JRA and a control group (30 children) were studied. Findings showed that mean resonant frequency values in all children with JRA were greater than in the control children. The multifrequency tympanometry parameters measured in acute JRA subjects are not different from parameters of remission JRA subjects except for a change in the phase angle. The changes found are due to involvement of the incudomalleolar and incudostapedial joints.
