of this study were to review our experience on intracranial complications secondary to otitis media (OM), and to compare the results to those occurring 10 -15 years ago. We also reviewed the timing of both otologic and neurosurgical treatments. Material and methods: All patients with intracranial complications secondary to OM over a 7-year period were identified. A retrospective chart review was undertaken at Beaumont University Hospital, Dublin, Ireland. Clinical presentation, radiological findings, microbiology, surgical management, and antibiotic use were studied. We compare our findings to those of other international investigators. Results: Twelve cases were identified. Five had brain abscesses, 4 had lateral sinus thrombosis, and 3 had petrous apicitis. Eight of these cases were secondary to chronic OM and 4 were secondary to acute OM. Malodorous otorrhea, otalgia, headache, fever, and vertigo were the primary symptoms. Anaerobic bacteria were the most commonly isolated organisms followed by Staphylococcus aureus, Proteus mirabilis, and Pseudomonas aeruginosa. Patients with cholesteatoma underwent modified radical or radical mastoidectomy, and those who did not have cholesteatoma underwent cortical mastoidectomy. Two brain abscesses were drained before mastoid surgery; 2 were drained after mastoid surgery and 1 at the same time as otologic surgery. All patients received broadspectrum intravenous antibiotics targeted at individual culture and sensitivity results. The mortality rate was zero. Conclusion: Clinical presentation and the frequency of occurrence of intracranial complications are similar to those occurring 10 years ago. The choice of antibiotics should include adequate anaerobic cover. We recommend that otologic surgery be performed at the same time as intracranial surgery for patients with mature brain abscesses.

This prospective, non-randomized study investigated the value of combining both surgical procedures. Thirteen patients with otogenic intracranial abscess were treated by mastoidectomy and abscess removal through the same incision between 1993 and 2002. Another 12 patients underwent abscess removal or mastoidectomy followed by the other procedure within 7 days. The clinical features of the patients were compared. Four patients died in our series. All four patients had Glasgow Coma Scale (GCS) scores of 7 or less. The preoperative GCS score was the main factor in mortality. One patient had recurrence after the combined approach compared to nine patients with recurrence after separate procedures. The surgical procedure was the main factor affecting the recurrence rate. The combined approach and total capsule excision of the abscess may reduce the risk of recurrence of otogenic intracrania...</p><div class="ds-related-work--ctas"><button class="ds2-5-text-link ds2-5-text-link--inline js-swp-download-button" data-signup-modal="{&quot;location&quot;:&quot;wsj-grid-card-download-pdf-modal&quot;,&quot;work_title&quot;:&quot;Combined Approach for Otogenic Brain Abscess&quot;,&quot;attachmentId&quot;:74763724,&quot;attachmentType&quot;:&quot;pdf&quot;,&quot;work_url&quot;:&quot;https://www.academia.edu/61826594/Combined_Approach_for_Otogenic_Brain_Abscess&quot;,&quot;alternativeTracking&quot;:true}"><span class="material-symbols-outlined" style="font-size: 18px" translate="no">download</span><span class="ds2-5-text-link__content">Download free PDF</span></button><a class="ds2-5-text-link ds2-5-text-link--inline js-wsj-grid-card-view-pdf" href="https://www.academia.edu/61826594/Combined_Approach_for_Otogenic_Brain_Abscess"><span class="ds2-5-text-link__content">View PDF</span><span class="material-symbols-outlined" style="font-size: 18px" translate="no">chevron_right</span></a></div></div><div class="ds-related-work--container js-wsj-grid-card" data-collection-position="3" data-entity-id="17275731" data-sort-order="default"><a class="ds-related-work--title js-wsj-grid-card-title ds2-5-body-md ds2-5-body-link" href="https://www.academia.edu/17275731/Otogenic_Brain_Abscess_A_Mini_Review">Otogenic Brain Abscess: A Mini Review</a><div class="ds-related-work--metadata"><a class="js-wsj-grid-card-author ds2-5-body-sm ds2-5-body-link" data-author-id="6527749" href="https://pims.academia.edu/VenkataramanaKandi">Venkataramana Kandi</a></div><p class="ds-related-work--abstract ds2-5-body-sm">ntracranial complications secondary to ear infections is an established clinical condition. The proximity of the brain compartments to the ear increases the chances of infections getting percolated to central nervous system. Early clinical and laboratory diagnosis of such infections and better patient management strategies are required to minimize the intracranial and extracranial complications. Acute and chronic suppurative otitis media (CSOM) have been considered as risk factors for otogenic brain complications. Among the microbiological causes, recently, there has been an increase in the cases of otogenic brain abscess due to Streptococcus spp. This review discusses the microbiological causes, implications, laboratory, diagnosis, andmanagement of otogenic complications of central nervous system.</p><div class="ds-related-work--ctas"><button class="ds2-5-text-link ds2-5-text-link--inline
