Abstract
|
|
|
|
An auricular hematoma (othematoma) is an accumulation of blood and seous fluid in plane between the perichondrium and cartilage. This usually results from direct blunt trauma to the ear and occurs frequently in contacts sports. Othematoma may be spontaneous, traumatic, idiopathic in origin. Recently we encountered a case of othematoma without any cause. It showed repetition of frequent recurrent period and complete remission period. It was completely healed after aspiration & triamcinolon injection and a few months later it was alternatively recurred. With a review of literature, authors report a case of othematoma with unique recurrent pattern.
