Abstract:
Auricular pseudocyst is a benign idiopathic disease, which typically presents as painless spontaneous swelling over the anterior part of the auricle.

We present two case reports and a discussion of the auricle pseudocysts, their origin and treatment options.

Anatomy of the Ear
Auditory sensation, commonly called hearing, involves the transformation of sonic waves into neural impulses facilitated by the structures of the auditory organ. The prominent, flesh-like structure on the side of the head, called the auricle, directs sound waves towards the auditory canal. The auricle is often mislabeled as the pinna, a term more aligned with mobile structures like a feline's external ear. The auditory canal penetrates the cranium via the external auditory meatus of the...
