Abstract
To describe a rare case of Potts' puffy tumor (PPT) in the zygomatic area, which developed as a complication of acute otitis media in a 6-year-old child. To date, only one case of PPT has been described in the literature as a complication of latent mastoiditis in an adult, and one case of PPT as a complication of acute mastoiditis in a 10-year-old child. Urgent surgical intervention, including evacuation of the purulent lesion, removal of inflamed soft tissue and osteolysis of the involved bone, and antromastoidectomy, intravenous treatment with broad-spectrum antibiotics, including G+, G-, anaerobes and fungi, and local therapy.
