ABSTRACT

Frey syndrome or auriculotemporal nerve syndrome manifests as flushing, sweating, or both, localized to the distribution of the auriculotemporal nerve,in response to gustatory stimuli. Ocasionally it may be misinterpreted as foog allergy. It usually occurs as a result of injury to auriculotemporalnerve, but there are cases with no known previous trauma.It is rarely described in children as well as the bilateral involvement, as the case we presented.
