Overview

Mastoiditis results from middle ear infection. The most common bacteria that cause acute mastoiditis are Streptococcus pneumoniae, Streptococcus pyogenes, and Staphylococcus aureus.[1] Staphylococci, Pseudomonas species, and polymicrobials are predominantly seen in non-acute mastoiditis. Pseudomonas aeruginosa may be found in children with acute mastoiditis as a consequence of recurrent acute otitis media and antibiotic use.[2]

Causes

Life-threatening causes

Life-threatening causes include conditions which may result in death or permanent disability within 24 hours if left untreated. There are no life-threatening causes of mastoiditis, though complications resulting from untreated mastoiditis are common.

Common Causes

Mastoiditis is caused by untreated acute otitis media (middle ear infection). Accordingly, the bacterial pathogens that cause mastoiditis are similar to the pathogens that cause infectious otitis media. The most common causes are:[3][4][5]
