Overview

Mastoiditis is the infection of mastoid ear cells in the process of temporal bone. It is mostly a complication of ear diseases such as Acute Otitis Media and chronic otitis media, and it tends to occur in children. However after developments of antibiotics acute otitis media complications have decreased significantly.
