AbstractSubcutaneous emphysema of the head and neck after otologic surgery is exceedingly rare. The mechanism relates to the intimate relationship of the temporomandibular joint to the external auditory canal. We present a rare case of subcutaneous emphysema after otologic surgery for ear disease. An astute clinical index of suspicion coupled with prompt treatment can help minimize morbidity and improve patient outcomes.Copyright © 2012 Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved.
