“…TM after surgery employing a titanium plate and screws covered by muscles was possibly due to autoimmune syndrome induced by adjuvants (ASIA) syndrome [10,12]. Masticatory myositis may be the presenting sign of trichinosis or cysticercosis [5] and may rarely complicate otitis media [13].…”

Temporal myositis is a rare inflammatory disease of the temporal muscle. We report a case of unilateral temporal myositis, in which a polymyositis was diagnosed two years thereafter. Although focal myositis may rarely herald polymyositis, isolated temporal myositis preceding inflammatory myopathies has not been described, to our knowledge. In the setting of a temporal pain and swelling, ultrasonography may help in diagnosis, biopsy guidance, disease extension, and progression assessment. Further studies are necessary to establish the role of elastography in differentiating between muscle inflammation and hypertrophy.

“…It may perforate and initiate the inflammation penetration anteriorly under the lower edge of the temporal muscle. 7 The inflammation can infiltrate the whole of the temporal muscle and connective tissue layer. The condition was seen in the CT scan as an appearance of heterogeneously ill defined enhancing soft tissue lesions over the temporal region.…”

Acute otitis media is an inflammatory process involving the mucoperiosteum of the middle ear cleft. The clinical spectrum can be extended from a self-limiting benign condition to a complicated disease with intracranial involvement. Intracranial and extracranial complications of acute otitis media is still occur in the modern antibiotic era and has potentially serious consequences with high mortality rate. We report a case of acute otitis media with temporal myositis and middle fossa epidural abscess which is rarely seen as the complications from the disease.

“…Според статистическите проучвания [1] интракраниалните компликации се срещат близо два пъти по-рядко отколкото екстракраниалните. По данни от литературния обзор [2][3][4][5][6] смъртността от отогенни усложнения варира от 8 -26,3%, а трайните увреждания от 12,2 -13,6%. Етиологията на отогенните усложнения са различни гноеродни грам-положителни и грам-отрицателни, анаеробни микроорганизми, като най-често се касае за смесена микрофлора (напр.…”

The incidences of extracranial and intracranial complications have decreased significantly in the past 10 years. The most frequent cause for otogenic extracranial complications are cholesteatomas. In this article we present a case of 73 years old patient with rare extracranial complication due to chronic otitis media. The inflamation spreads through anterior air cells to the zygomatic cells leading to a fistula formation in the zygomatic bone and engaging the temporal muscle.
