ObjectiveTo investigate the effect of transfixion suture of auricle iodoform gauze strip in the treatment of auricle pseudocyst.Methods49 cases of auricular pseudocyst were randomly divided into two groups: the improved group (iodoform gauze through suture and compression bandage) and the control group (inverted triangular incision). The efficacy of the two groups was compared.ResultsThe patients were followed up for 6 months to 1 year. The effective rate of the improved group was 100.0%. There were no complications in the improved group. And the effective rate of the control group was 82.6%. There were the complications of auricle perichondritis and auricle deformity in 4 cases of the control group. The four patients were treated with antiinfection and dressing change, but they still had auricle deformity and auricular thickening. By comparing the incidence of complications, the difference between the two groups was statistically significant (P<0.05). There was significant difference in the number of dressing changes per capita between the two groups (P<0.05).ConclusionsIt has the advantages of quick recovery, fewer dressing changes, low recurrence rate and fewer complications for the treatment of auricular pseudocyst with iodoform gauze through suture and compression bandage. The treatment is worthy of being popularized in clinical application.
