摘要
Meningitis in the case of spontaneous dehiscences of the lateral skull base is rare. We report on two patients with otogenic meningitis. High-resolution CT (HR-CT) showed bilateral dehiscences at the lateral skull base in both cases. Infection along the skull base was assumed. In the first case sufficient repair was achieved using a multilayered technique, while in the second case conservative treatment on an intensive care unit was successful. Conservative therapy can prove successful in exceptional cases.
