摘要

Purpose

We describe a simple and reproducible outpatient technique for managing auricular seroma using aspiration, intralesional triamcinolone acetonide (2.5 mL), and external compression with either a silicone sheet or a button.

Methods

By combining complete aspiration, steroid deposition to reduce inflammatory recurrence, and tailored compression to obliterate the potential space, we achieved reliable resolution in our patients.

Results

In our experience, this method is efficient, minimally invasive, inexpensive, and preserves auricular contour. This technique uses easily accessible materials and is well tolerated.

Conclusion

This technique offers a practical solution for routine ENT practice.
