    Auto mastoidectomy is a rare complication that can develop after a chronic middle ear infection and can be seen in cases where no response to classical infection treatment is obtained. The destruction of bones and tissues may cause the current infection in the brain.A 55-year-old male patient applied to the emergency department for a left ear pain complaint. In his examination, he was conscious, but orientation and cooperation were not complete. The brain CT showed a mastoidectomy cavity on the left, but he had never been operated on. The destruction of bones and tissues may cause the current condition in the brain. This case report examines a case of auto mastoidectomy due to cholesteatoma, which can be diagnosed when the brain abscess develops.
