There have been few reported cases of parasitic infestation of the external auditory canal. We report a case of parasitic tick infestation of the external auditory canal. A 61-year-old female patient visited our hospital after she was bit in the ear by a tick. We sprayed 8% lidocaine and removed it with the mouthparts intact. We identified the tick as Amblyomma testudinarium. In recent years, a tick-mediated infectious disease characterized by severe fever and thrombocytopenia syndrome (SFTS) has drawn attention due to the high mortality rate. We believe that not only local treatment of the bite, but also strict follow-up of the patient’s overall condition is important.
