          Abstract

          Resumen El síndrome de Frey o síndrome auriculotemporal es una entidad infrecuente en Pediatría y su presentación bilateral es aún más rara. La principal causa en niños es el uso de fórceps durante el parto, aunque en ocasiones no existe un antecedente identificable. Consiste en episodios recurrentes de eritema y sudoración facial, en el área inervada por el nervio auriculotemporal, tras estímulos gustativos con la ingesta de diferentes alimentos, principalmente alimentos ácidos. En ocasiones puede ser confundido con una alergia alimentaria, de ahí la importancia de conocer esta entidad y así poder disminuir el número de pruebas complementarias y derivaciones a unidades especializadas. No precisa tratamiento y se debe informar a la familia adecuadamente para su tranquilidad. Se presenta un caso de síndrome de Frey bilateral sin antecedentes de traumatismo obstétrico.

          Abstract Frey's syndrome o auriculotemporal syndrome is an infrequent entity in pediatrics and its bilateral presentation is even rarer. The main cause in children is the use of forceps during the delivery, although sometimes there is no history of it. This syndrome consists of recurrent episodes of erythema and facial sweating in the area that is innerved by the auriculotemporal nerve, after a gustative stimulus with the intake of different food, mainly acidic foods. Sometimes, it can be mistaken for a food allergy, for this reason, it is important to know this entity and to decrease the number of complementary tests and referrals to specialized units. A treatment isn't necessary, and the family must be properly informed for their tranquillity. We are going to present a case of bilateral Frey's Syndrome with no history of obstetric traumatism.
