Abstract

Otorhinolaryngology is rich in a large number of hypothetical approaches related to anatomical and functional concepts as well as in theories concerning the etiopathogenesis and physiopathology of various diseases. The function of the paranasal sinuses, the pneumatization of the temporal bone and the factors that predispose to the appearance and evolution of otitis media, mainly. Following the path of the nonconformists and with the aim of presenting new concepts based on the principle that Genetics as the universal science capable of explaining everything related to life in the animal and plant kingdoms, we present our concepts. This paper is composed of a compendium of 3 articles created by the author with the aim of presenting a new theory of the etiopathogenesis and physiopathology of otitis media, taking as its main element the genetic factors as the only elements capable of explaining its appearance, development and evolution, mainly its transition to chronicity. In addition, the current paper includes reflections related to the “Auditory System” and the elements that influence individual constitutional characteristics that could help to understand the enormous variety in auditory quality, including gifted ears. Criteria related to the controversial, mysterious and still unresolved “Havana neurosensory syndrome” are also included with the intention of contributing to solving a health problem.
