Abstract

The authors present a cause of 51 year old female with recurrent meningeal infection. The patient had a remote history of head injury that she had almost forgotten. CT was performed but no pathology of temporal bone origin was diagnosed. DTPA+Tc 99m cisternography showed an abnormal radioactive accumulation in the right middle ear at 6 and 24 hours after intrathecal injection.
