Overview
The most common bacteria that cause acute mastoiditis are Streptococcus pneumoniae, Streptococcus pyogenes, and Staphylococcus aureus[1]. Staphylococci, Pseudomonas species and polymicrobials present predominantly seen in non-acute mastoiditis. Pseudomonas aeruginosa may be find in children with acute mastoiditis as a consequence of recurrent acute otitis media and antibiotic use[2]
Causes
Common Causes
Mastoiditis is caused by untreated acute otitis media (middle ear infection).Therefore the bacterial pathogens that cause mastoiditis are similar to the pathogens that causing infectious otitis media. Most common causes are [3][4][5]
- Streptococcus pneumonia,
- Streptococcus pyogenes,
- Staphylococcus aureus (including methicillin-resistant S. aureus),
Rare causes
Bacterial
- Haemophilus influenzae is rare in mastoiditis of childhood despite being the second most frequent cause of acute otitis media[6].
