ABSTRACT
Background:
Chronic suppurative otitis media (CSOM) leads to numerous well identified complications reported by many researchers.
Case report:
Present case study includes 9 patients with CSOM (active squamous type) where we found infective endocarditis as a rare complication.
Conclusions:
The current study highlights the importance of early management of CSOM and proper cardiologic evaluation which can prevent catastrophic complications such as infective endocarditis.
