Otogenic cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) leak is a rare disease. When it is related with inner ear anomaly it could cause recurrent meningitis. Early diagnosis and proper management is imperative to prevent recurrent meningitis and subsequent bilateral sensorineural hearing loss. The authors present a case of bacterial meningitis in 3 years-old girl who had unilateral inner ear anomaly combined with CSF leak. Stapes foot plate defect was found with CSF leak and repaired with soft tissue and fibrin glue. The postoperative course was good and there has been no recurrence of the cerebrospinal fluid leakage.
