Presentation
Presentation with otoneurological signs prior to systemic involvement of a lymphoproliferative disease is also unusual [ 5 ]. [karger.com]
However, in cases of delayed presentation, resistant organism or immunocompromised patient, it may extend to a more severe infection. [teachmesurgery.com]
Presented by Kiran Patil 2. Introduction: Chandler published the first series of patients with progressive osteomyelitis of the temporal bone and termed the condition malignant otitis externa. 3. [slideshare.net]
Abscess formation AOE can lead to localised abscess formation ; this is usually as a result of Staphylococcus aureus This presents with localised fluctuant swelling, which may form in or around the affected ear Occlusion of the ear canal may lead to a [entsho.com]
As mentioned, OAS is a rare condition that presents with a complex set of symptoms, including ophthalmoplegia, proptosis and visual loss. [jpma.org.pk]

No data were found to compare rates of complication between the different treatment modalities20. There are however studies that suggest hyperbaric oxygen may be useful in the treatment of MOE21. [webmedcentral.com]
The germ was not found because of previous treatment. MOE diagnosis was based on the anamnesis and the patient's response to treatment. We have to bear in mind that the patient had not had any prior ear infection. [bjorl.org]
Prognosis
The development of cranial neuropathy generally was thought to reflect advanced-stage disease associated with a worse prognosis. [emedicine.medscape.com]
Cranial nerve involvement’s role in prognosis is unclear as several studies have found that there is no correlation 8 but a meta-analysis conducted by Chen found a statistically significant influence on prognosis of MOE. [emdocs.net]

Epidemiology Otitis externa is common and manifests as an acute or chronic form. The acute form affects four in 1,000 persons annually and the chronic form affects 3-5% of the population. [aspergillus.org.uk]

Pathophysiology Otitis externa typically affects the external auditory canal – the part of the ear via which sound waves travel to reach the tympanic membrane. [teachmesurgery.com]
Irrespective of the depth of the tissue invasion, these infections have similar pathophysiology that includes local tissue hypoxia, which is exacerbated by a secondary occlusive endarteritis [5]. [ejo.eg.net]
