Summary: Tuberculous otitis media (TOM) is a rare cause of chronic suppurative infection, that occurs in less than 1% of chronic infections of the ear. The clinical findings are variable, so the index of suspicion is low and this will cause a delayed diagnosis and possible complications. Tuberculous otitis media should be considered in all cases of chronic supurative otitis media unresponsive to the usual therapies. A case report of a child and review of the literature are presented, emphasizing that early diagnosis and treatment of TOM can prevent the possible complications.

La presencia de síntomas clínicos variables determina su retraso en el diagnóstico y la aparición de complicaciones. Debe siempre tenerse en cuenta en todos los casos de otitis crónicas supuradas que no responden a las terapias habituales. Describimos el caso de una niña y revisamos la literatura haciendo hincapié en el diagnóstico precoz y su tratamiento para evitar las posibles complicaciones.Sociedade Portuguesa de Otorrinolaringologia e Cirurgia de Cabeça e Pescoço2008-09-28info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersioninfo:eu-repo/semantics/articleapplication/pdfhttps://doi.org/10.34631/sporl.405https://doi.org/10.34631/sporl.405Portuguese Journal of Otorhinolaryngology and Head and Neck Surgery; Vol. 46 No. 3 (2008): Setembro; 203-206Revista Portuguesa de Otorrinolaringologia e Cirurgia de Cabeça e Pescoço; Vol. 46 Núm. 3 (2008): Setembro; 203-206Revista Portuguesa de Otorrinolaringologia-Cirurgia de Cabeça e Pescoço; Vol. 46 N.º 3 (2008): Setembro; 203-2062184-6499reponame:Repositórios Científicos de Acesso Aberto de Portugal (RCAAP)instname:FCCN, serviços digitais da FCT – Fundação para a Ciência e a Tecnologiainstacron:RCAAPporhttps://journalsporl.com/index.php/sporl/article/view/2392https://journalsporl.com/index.php/sporl/article/view/2392/397Díez, L.Prado, A.
