dc.description.abstract	Acute auricular perichondritis is an infection of the external ear that can lead to potentially serious complications if not promptly diagnosed and treated. The authors present the case of a five-year-old boy who was diagnosed with acute perichondritis after presenting to the Pediatric Emergency Department with acute ear redness, swelling, and pain. The diagnosis of acute perichondritis was established based on the classic physical examination findings of erythema and edema with sparing of the earlobe.	por
