The most common places the infection settles in are the hands and the face. It can be seen as single or multiple lesions. Diagnosis is mostly through the clinical signs and the patient’s history. In this article we present a 10-year-old female orf case that developed the infection in the ear one week after she was bitten by a lamb. From the history of the patient we learned that she had no prior complaints similar to the current infection. On dermatological examination, there was a 1 cm violet erythematous nodule surrounded by yellow crusts on the left ear lobe. We presented the case because of the atypical location of the lesion and to provide updated knowledge about orf CR - Öztürkcan S. Orf (Ektima Kontagiozum).
