ABSTRACT
Actinomycosis of the middle ear is a rare infectious disease, characterized by a slowly progressive clinical course. We report the case of a 9-year-old girl with recurrent otitis media, who presented with clinical signs of a cholesteatoma. She underwent tympanoplasty and ossiculoplasty. After surgery, actinomycosis was diagnosed histologically. We also provide a review of 16 published pediatric cases.
