Abstract
- Pseudocyst of the auricle is a disease of degenerative cartilage associated with asymptomatic swelling of the external ear caused by an intracartilaginous accumulation of serous fluid. Histological examination shows an intracartilaginous cavity without an epithelial lining. This disease is characterized by frequent relapses despite various therapeutic approaches. In this report we describe one patient with pseudocyst of the auricle who was successfully treated with intralesional injection of 1 mg/mL of minocycline hydrochloride.
