title: [A case of para-cerebral abscess as a complication of middle ear purulent inflammation].
abstract: We reported the case of para-cerebral abscess in the left temporal region, being a complication of exacerbation of chronic middle ear inflammation with cholesteatoma. Computed tomography was performed, which helped in the diagnosis. The patient was treated conservatively by aimed antibiotic therapy. We performed surgery of the middle ear, with abscess removal through trepan apertura attaining good results. We have presented principles of diagnostic and therapeutic procedures which help in prevention of intracranial complications in ear diseases.
