Relating to both the attic (space in the middle ear) and the mastoid (bone behind the ear), particularly their anatomical connection or pathways.
From attic (part of middle ear anatomy, from Attica metaphorically) + mastoid (from Greek mastoeides, breast-shaped, from mastos breast + -eides resembling).
Doctors use 'atticomastoid' when infections or surgery involve both the ear's attic region and the mastoid bone—it's one of those medical terms that shows how body parts get mapped using architectural metaphors.
