Abstract

We report herein on a case of refractory otitis media due to a congenital pre-auricular fistula communicating with the mastoid antrum. The patient was a 12-year-old female with middle-ear anomalies. The pre-auricular fistula was removed, and a tympanoplasty was performed. The fistula communicated with the mastoid antrum. Because of the combination of the branchial fistula and hearing loss, our suspected diagnoses was branchio-oto-renal syndrome and we performed genetic tests.<br>
