There are a number of possible complications of acute mastoiditis. These are typically stemming from direct extension of the infection or sequelae of local inflammation:
- Subperiosteal abscess
- Bezold abscess
- Citelli abscess
- Labyrinthitis
- Petrous apicitis
- Dural sinus occlusive disease (DSOD)
- Facial nerve dysfunction
- Thrombosis of mastoid emissary vein (Griesinger sign)
Complications can also result from intracranial extension if the infection:
- Epidural abscess, most commonly perisinus (adjacent to sigmoid sinus)
- Meningitis
- Subdural empyema
- Cerebral abscess
