Using a temporoparietal fascial flap and hydroxyapatite ceramics, we treated a patient for complications after a neurosurgical operation for glossopharyngeal neuralgia. These consisted of pneumocephalus and cerebrospinal fluid rhinorrhea resulting from fistulas of mastoid air cells associated with a subcutaneous dead space. By means of the temporoparietal fascial flap, we were able to fill the dead space and reinforce the repaired dural and mastoid lesion as well. Hydroxyapatite ceramics were also useful for closing the mastoid air cell fistulas.
