Bilateral tuberculous otitis media: An unique presentation.

Tuberculous otitis media (TOM) is an uncustomary variety of tuberculosis (TB) usually seen secondary to pulmonary tuberculosis or associated with it. It is characterized by indolent and heterogeneous presentations. Diagnosis warrants clinical, radiological, and microbiological amalgamation. It is hence challenging and frequently delayed leading to disabling complications. Opportunate suspicion, timely diagnosis and appropriate antituberculosis therapy are the key to successful management. We report a unique case of bilateral TOM occurring in an immunocompetent adult.
