Introduction: Malignant otitis externa (MOE) is an invasive external ear infection that has a tendency to spread through the temporal bone and can further progress to involve intracranial structures. Though the prevalence of MOE is rare, high morbidity and mortality are often associated. Complications of advanced MOE include cranial nerve involvement, most commonly facial nerve, and intracranial infections such as abscesses and meningitis.Materials and methods: In this retrospective case series of nine patients diagnosed with MOE, demographic data, clinical presentations, laboratory data, and radiological findings were reviewed. All patients were followed up for a minimum period of three months after discharge. Outcomes were measured in terms of reduction in obnoxious ear pain (Visual Analogue Scale), ear discharge, tinnitus, need for re-hospitalization, recurrence of disease, and overall survival.Results: In our case series of nine patients (seven males and two females), six underwent surgery, and three patients were managed with a medical line of treatment. All patients had a significant reduction in otorrhea, otalgia, random venous blood sugars, and improvement of facial palsy implicating good response to treatment.Conclusion: Prompt diagnosis of MOE warrants clinical expertise and aids in preventing complications. A prolonged course of intravenous anti-microbial agents is the mainstay of treatment, but timely surgical interventions in treatment-resistant cases can prevent complications.
