INTRODUCTION
Pyoderma gangrenosum (PG) refers to a primary sterile neutrophilic dermatosis with an idiopathic etiology that rarely affects children.1,2 Involvement of the external ear is a rare encounter though its rarity does not seem to determine its inherent behavior with regard to characteristics of the ulcer and response to treatment. 3-5 The diagnosis of PG remains to be clinical especially in resource-limited settings and there is no consensus to date on its gold-standard treatment. The patient in this case report was diagnosed clinically and responded well to steroids among other prescribed medications and with no relapse after six-months follow-up. A high index of suspicion is essential to execute its prompt treatment. The objective of this case report was to report an unusual case of involvement of external ear by PG and to the best of our knowledge this is the first reported case in our country.
