Atypical Skull-Base Osteomyelitis: Comprehensive Review and Multidisciplinary Management Viewpoints

et al. 2023

Atypical skull-base osteomyelitis is a rare but fatal disease that usually involves infection of the ethmoid, sphenoid, occipital, or temporal bones that form the skull base. Unlike typical (so-called otogenic), atypical skull-base osteomyelitis has no otogenic cause. Instead, some authors call atypical skull-base osteomyelitis sinonasal, since the infection most often originates from the nose and paranasal sinuses. Diagnosing and treating this disease is challenging. To assist in managing atypical skull-base osteomyelitis, a review of the most recent literature, with patient cases and multidisciplinary perspectives from otolaryngologists, neurosurgeons, radiologists, infectious disease specialists, pathologists, and clinical microbiologists, is provided in this paper.
