Main Article: Single stage, transmastoid approach for otogenic intracranial abscess
Aspiration of intracranial abscess of otogenic origin,by burr hole and concurrent mastoidectomy, has previously been described. An infective tract from the mastoid to the intracranial abscess can almost always be identified; hence, mastoidectomy with clearance of the infective tract and transmastoid drainage of the abscess is advocated at the same sitting. The type of mastoidectomy depends on the type of middle-ear pathology. In cases of otogenic intracranial abscess, there is a higher incidence of non-cholesteatomatous ears vs ears with cholesteatoma.
