  • Title: Sulfamylon allergy simulating chondritis.
    Author: Kroll SS, Gerow FJ.
    Journal: Plast Reconstr Surg; 1987 Aug; 80(2):298-9. PubMed ID: 3602182.
    Abstract:
    A case of atopic reaction to Sulfamylon is described that occurred in a patient receiving this medication as a topical treatment for burned ears. The presenting signs were similar to those of a persistent chondritis, with which it was initially confused. All signs and symptoms cleared rapidly after the Sulfamylon was discontinued. Physicians should be aware of this entity so as to avoid inappropriate surgical debridement of ears with this relatively minor problem.
