Orf of the pinna
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 29 June 2007
Abstract
A case of orf affecting the pinna is discussed. This is an unusual presentation of aninfection that is common in farming communities.
At the initial presentation the diagnosis was not suspected, the management therefore was inappropriate and probably gave rise to the secondary infection that ensued. The history described is classical.
Orf affecting the external auditory canal has been reported once, but orf affecting the pinna has not been described before.
