Abstrakt: Introduction Chronic Suppurative Otitis Media (CSOM) is the chronic inflammation of the middle ear cleft which is composed of Eustachian tube, hypotympanum, mesotympanum, epitympanum, aditus and mastoid air cells. Continuing mucosal infection of the middle ear by resistant organisms, nasopharynx with secondary infection of the middle ear cleft and mucosal changes of the middle ear secondary to eustachian tube dysfunction may contribute to the development of chronic otitis media [[2]]. Clinically dry ear central perforations have been included in the study, but CT mastoid especially in the case of mucosal CSOM has been helpful in identifying the hidden pathology in the middle ear and antrum. Clinical identification of mucosal CSOM is often sufficient for the diagnosis and management, but in rare cases CT temporal bone can help in identifying the hidden pathology in the middle ear, aditus or antrum as seen in our study.
