Abstract

Abstract A 9-year-old male with history of mixed hearing loss presented with petrous apex lesion following episode of meningitis. Serial imaging revealed persistence of the lesion necessitating biopsy to rule out malignancy. Biopsy revealed inflammatory changes. The management of petrous apex lesions following meningitis can be conservative but repeat imaging is necessary to rule out progression and to rule out neoplastic process.
