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:

* Labyrinthitis
* Petrous apicitis
* Dural sinus occlusive disease (DSOD)
* Facial nerve dysfunction
* Thrombosis of mastoid emissary vein (Griesinger sign)

Complications

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
