ABSTRACT

Sigmoid sinus thrombosis is a rare complication of otitis media and is known to be unilateral. In this report, we present a case of bilateral sigmoid sinus thrombosis secondary to bilateral otitis. To the best of our knowledge, there are no bilateral-simultaneous cases reported in literature to date. Here, the diagnosis of and treatment for the disease as well as predisposing factors are discussed.

ÖZET

Sigmoid sinus trombozu otitis medianın nadir bir komplikasyonudur ve tek taraflı görülür. Bu yazıda bilateral otit sonucu gelişen iki taraflı sigmoid sinüs trombozu olgusu sunulmaktadır. Görebildiğimiz kadarıyla şu ana kadar literatürde bildirilmiş iki taraflı-eş zamanlı olgular yoktur. Burada, predispozan faktörlere ek olarak hastalığın tanı ve tedavisi de tartışılmaktadır.

Keywords: Complications, mastoiditis, sigmoid sinus thrombosis, otitis media
