Otitis Media, Suppurative - Inflammation of the middle ear with purulent discharge.

Petrositis - Inflammation of PETROUS BONE.

Labyrinthitis - Inflammation of the inner ear (LABYRINTH).

Otitis - Inflammation of the ear, which may be marked by pain (EARACHE), fever, HEARING DISORDERS, and VERTIGO. Inflammation of the external ear is OTITIS EXTERNA; of the middle ear, OTITIS MEDIA; of the inner ear, LABYRINTHITIS.

Otitis Externa - Inflammation of the OUTER EAR including the external EAR CANAL, cartilages of the auricle (EAR CARTILAGE), and the TYMPANIC MEMBRANE.
