The study concludes that nasal diseases are the precipitating factors for chronic suppurative otitis media so every case of CSOM should have through examination of nose and PNS to rule out sinonasal pathology.

KEYWORDS: chronic suppurative otitis media (CSOM) deviated nasal septum (DNS), diagnostic nasal endoscopy (DNE).
