Dengue is humans' most prevalent and crucial arthropod-borne viral illness. The majority of dengue fever patients have no symptoms, but certain individuals may progress to dengue shock syndrome or dengue hemorrhagic fever. Spontaneous auricular hematoma is a rare complication of dengue fever. We report a unique case of spontaneous pinna hematoma in a young, healthy patient who presented with an unprovoked pinna swelling while being treated for dengue fever. The patient underwent aspiration, drainage, and compression dressing over the auricular hematoma with antibiotic coverage and was discharged well. Early identification of this potential warning symptom may avoid permanent ear deformity.

登革热是人类最普遍且关键的节肢动物传播病毒性疾病。大多数登革热患者没有症状,但某些个体可能会发展为登革热休克综合征或登革出血热。自发性耳廓血肿是登革热的一种罕见并发症。我们报告了一例独特的自发性耳廓血肿病例,该病例发生在一名年轻健康的患者身上,他在接受登革热治疗时出现了无端的耳廓肿胀。患者接受了耳廓血肿的抽吸、引流和加压包扎,并使用了抗生素,随后康复出院。早期识别这种潜在的警示症状可避免永久性耳部畸形。
