Otitis externa complicated with chloramphenicol ear drops-induced perichondritis.

I Mohamad1, Kb Johan2, Hz Hashim1, Na Nik Othman1.   

Abstract

Otitis externa is a common condition of the ear. It is manifested as narrowing of the lumen owing to the edematous swelling of the ear canal lining. Perichondritis may occur independently or as a complication of the otitis externa. We report a case of perichondritis after using a topical ear drop. Changing the medication provides immediate resolution of the condition.
