A pseudocyst of the auricle is a rare disease with an unknown cause. We report a female patient
who had auricular pseudocyst after a soft tissue filler injection in that area. The cyst was excised
under local anesthesia. The entire cyst wall was removed and some portion of the surrounding
cartilage was also resected. A silastic drain was inserted and the compressive dressing was
maintained for 5 days. The swelling subsided gradually and no recurrence was noted after a 1-year
follow up. Histopathology confirmed that the cyst has no epithelial lining on its inner surface. Patients
and doctors should be aware that a soft tissue filler can cause a pseudocyst when injected into the
auricle.
