Abstract

The authors report a case in which a 42-year-old woman developed an intracranial abscess in the temporal lobe as a result of a peri-odontogenic infection. A subdural abscess also developed in the middle cranial fossa, expanding directly from the base of the skull through the foramen ovale and the foramen spinosum.<br> An operation involving a left-front temporal incision extending to the tragus was performed. Debridement and brain aspiration with drainage were carried out after the craniotomy via the same skin incision without operative complications. The patient left hospital 36 days after the operation without sequelae.
