ecrotizing Otitis Externa (NOE) is an infection of the
external auditory canal leading to an Osteomyelitis of the
bone and surrounding soft tissue and to multiple abscess and
cranial nerve palsies. The frequency of this life-threatening
disease is increasing, and a shifting incidence has been
noted with more sterile culture and fungal cases. Aspergillus
serology and PCR are actually important tools in the diagnosis
of this condition and many therapeutic procedures have been
used and combined: antibiotics, antifungals, local treatment,
hyperbaric oxygen therapy and surgery.
In this session, we will summarize and discuss the most
relevant clinical and therapeutic features of NOE on the basis
of the most recent data in literature.
