We present a case of a 23-year old patient who has chronic otitis media, complicated by a brain abscess followed by a meninges syndrome resistant to anti-bithicotherapy. We report the interest of diagnosis by CT and MRI imaging and cytobacteriological study and antibiogram according to the germ incriminates. The patient received a stereotactic drainage puncture, or the bacterial study and otological sampling were in favor of Pseudomonas aerogenosas and antibiotic therapy. A closed technique tympanoplasty is then performed with excision of an aggressive cholesteatomy and reconstruction of the bone frames of the case as well as ossiculoplasty.
