Latent mastoiditis: no room for complacency.

D P Martin-Hirsch1, S Habashi, R Page, A E Hinton.   

Abstract

The administration of antibiotics in otitis media alters the natural course of the disease process. If the antibiotics used are inappropriate, or if dosage or duration of treatment is inadequate, an imminent intracranial complication may be masked. A case of latent mastoiditis presenting with Pott's puffy tumour is described.
