cupping of the optic nerve. Tx = keep pt supine, trx to ED for acetazolamide, B
blockers, and topical steroids. Sx may be required
Cauliflower like growth in the middle ear. Pt c/o foul smelling discharge and hearing
loss. On exam, no TM or ossicles visible. PMhx of chronic OM. The mass is not
Cholesteatoma cancerous but it can erode in to the bones of the face and damage CN7. Tx =
