摘要

一42歲男性，自幼開始，就會雙側耳殼就會發作陣發性的充血潮紅，會有灼熱感，特別是左側，往往會持續4-5小時，平均1週內會有2-3次的發作，尚無頭痛、聽力障礙、耳鳴、眩暈、感覺異常、肌肉無力或其他神經學局部症狀，建議保守治療。紅耳症候群是一種罕見的疾病，大多數患者在白天發作，症狀大多持續0.5-1小時左右，最嚴重的部位會是在耳垂。大多固定單側耳發作，少數為雙側耳發作。固然這是一種良性的疾病，致病機轉目前還不明確，在診斷時前應先排除耳殼的發炎性疾病。

A 42-year-old man has been bothered with episodic flushing and burning sensation on both ears since young. The symptoms were always severer in the left ear than in the right one. The symptomatic duration was 4-5 hours, and the frequency was 2-3 times per week. There was not any headache, hearing block, tinnitus, vertigo, paresthesia, ataxia or other neurologic focal sign. He was treated conservatively currently. Red ear syndrome was a rare disease. The symptoms always occurred in daytime in the majority. The majority had attacks lasting 0.5 to 1 hour. The symptomatic area is most pronounced over the earlobe. The majority had strictly unilateral attacks, and the minority has bilateral attacks. Although this is a benign disease and the pathophysiological mechanism is currently unclear, an auricular inflammatory disease should be excluded before red ear syndrome is confirmed.
