Surgical Deroofing of Auricular Pseudocysts: Two Case Reports

An auricular pseudocyst is an uncommon, benign cystic lesion that frequently occurs in the auricles of middle-aged male patients, characterized histologically by an intracartilaginous, non-epithelial-lined cystic space. This report presents two cases of auricular pseudocysts successfully treated using deroofing procedures, with excellent long-term outcomes observed at 6-month and 5-year follow-up, respectively. Although various treatment modalities may be employed for these lesions, surgical deroofing is considered a conventional and reliable option that provides low recurrence rates and superior aesthetic outcomes.
