BACKGROUND
Auriculotemporal syndrome (AS) is an uncommon disorder that may present with facial erythema with chewing food.
METHODS
We report a patient referred to an allergist to rule out allergy as a reason for food-associated bilateral facial flushing. She was subsequently found to have bilateral AS.
RESULTS
The symptoms of AS may overlap those associated with food allergy. There are only a few published cases of bilateral AS.
CONCLUSIONS
Allergists should be aware of bilateral AS and the clinical spectrum of this disorder as AS patients may be referred to allergists to rule out food allergy.
背景
耳颞综合征（AS）是一种罕见的疾病，可能在咀嚼食物时出现面部红斑。
方法
我们报告了一名转诊至过敏症专科医生处的患者，以排除食物相关双侧面部潮红的过敏原因。随后发现她患有双侧AS。
结果
AS的症状可能与食物过敏相关症状重叠。双侧AS的已发表病例很少。
结论
过敏症专科医生应了解双侧AS及其临床症状范围，因为AS患者可能会转诊至过敏症专科医生处以排除食物过敏。
