Abstract:

The present paper summarized the recently published data on the prevalence, etiology, pathogenesis, diagnostics, and treatment of otogenic intracranial complications. The results of statistical analysis of the prevalence of otogenic intracranial complications are presented in conjunction with the data on their structure and the frequency of selected nosological forms. The authors emphasize the importance of the problems concerning the choice of the therapeutic strategy for the management of otogenic intracranial complications. Special attention is given to the peculiarities of antibacterial treatment of various forms of otogenic intracranial infection.

Keywords:
