Abstract | Acute Otitis Media (AOM) is common among children. It almost always resolves completely with no sequelae. In unusual cases, however, bacterial resistance to antibiotics, disordered host immunity or anatomical deficits may lead to severe complications including facial nerve palsy. Prompt treatment by drainage and appropriate antibiotics is required for recovery from facial nerve palsy. |
