【 摘 要 】

The complications of acute otitis media remain an unsolved problem in pediatrics, as they often lead to disability of children. The damage to the nervous system is the most dramatic complications of acute purulent otitis media. Neurological complications include both intracranial lesions of the central nervous system (meningitis, encephalitis, brain abscesses) and neuropathy of the cranial nerves. We presented clinical cases of various neurological complications of otitis media, analyzed diagnostic and therapeutic errors and showed the ways to solve this difficult problem.
