Abscess Bezold, pertama kali dijelaskan pada tahun 1881 oleh Dr. Friedrich Bezold, merupakan komplikasi langka namun serius dari otitis media kronis yang terjadi akibat perforasi dan infeksi prosesus mastoideus, umumnya disebabkan oleh bakteri aerob dan anaerob. Kondisi ini ditandai dengan gejala nyeri leher, otalgia, otore, kehilangan pendengaran, dan pembengkakan di sekitar mastoid. Pengenalan dini dan penanganan cepat sangat penting untuk mencegah komplikasi yang mengancam jiwa, seperti mediastinitis dan infeksi intrakranial. Laporan ini memaparkan kasus seorang anak laki-laki berusia 7 tahun yang mengembangkan abses Bezold setelah mengalami riwayat keluarnya cairan telinga kronis dan gangguan pendengaran selama satu tahun akibat trauma dengan cotton bud. Pasien hadir dengan pembengkakan yang membesar dan nyeri di belakang telinga kanan serta leher lateral, disertai otore berbau tidak sedap. Pemeriksaan fisik menunjukkan tanda-tanda peradangan, kerak, nyeri tekan, serta membran timpani yang perforasi. Pemeriksaan computed tomography (CT) menunjukkan destruksi tulang mastoid dengan pembentukan abses yang meluas ke daerah leher. Kasus ini menekankan pentingnya mempertimbangkan abses Bezold sebagai diagnosis diferensial pada pasien otitis media kronis yang disertai pembengkakan dan nyeri leher. Pencitraan, khususnya CT scan, berperan penting dalam memastikan diagnosis dan menilai luasnya infeksi. Drainase bedah dini dikombinasikan dengan terapi antibiotik yang tepat sangat penting untuk mencegah komplikasi berat dan mencapai hasil yang baik.References
