Abstract
Chondrodermatitis nodularis helicis Winkler’s Disease is an inflammatory, degenerative disease. It commonly affects the helix on white men over 50 years of age. While the etiology remains unknown, microvascular insufficiency is thought to contribute its occurrence. This non neoplastic lesion has high recurrence rate. Various methods have been used in the past. Surgery is recommended for treatment with reduced recurrence rate nowadays. Many of the physicians are not familiar with its clinical progression, treatment modes. 39 years old man with a tender ear lesion is presented in this article. Chondodermatitis nodularis helicis is reviewed with clinical findings, pathogenesis, and treatment methods

Abstract
Kondrodermatitis nodülaris helisis Winkler Hastalığı , inflamatuar dejeneratif bir hastalıktır. Özellikle 50 yaş üzeri beyaz erkeklerde, heliks yerleşimli olarak görülür. Etiyolojisi kesin bilinmemekle birlikte oluşumunda mikrovasküler yetersizlik suçlanmaktadır. Neoplastik olmayan bu lezyon yüksek tekrarlama oranına sahiptir. Tedavide geçmişte çok çeşitli yöntemler kullanılmıştır. Günümüzde tekrar oranını azaltan cerrahi tedavi önerilmektedir. Birçok klinisyen bu hastalığın klinik seyri, tedavisi hakkında yeterli bilgiye sahip değildir. Bu makalede ağrılı kulak lezyonu olan 39 yaşında erkek hasta sunulmuştur. Kondrodermatitis nodülaris helisis klinik bulguları, patogenezi, tedavi seçenekleri ile tekrar gözden geçirilmiştir
