ABSTRACT

Recent advances in antibacterial drugs have greatly reduced the incidence of intracranial complications of temporal bone infections. We report an unusual case of a 77-year-old male with lateral sinus thrombosis that developed after subclinical mastoiditis, presenting with dyspnea, mild fever and right arm weakness. The patient was hospitalized for septic pneumonia, and brain images showed left lateral sinus thrombosis with otitis media. Surgical intervention was not performed because general condition was stabilized by intravenous antibiotics and anticoagulation. (J Clinical Otolaryngol 2014;25:179–184)
