RESUMEN
Introduction: Pseudocyst or seroma is an uncommon asymptomatic, non-in?ammatory swelling of the pinna, characterized by endochondral cyst formation. Pseudocyst commonly occur as a post trauma sequela. The objective of our study is to compare and analyse the outcomes of aspiration and window technique in treating auricular seroma. Randomized control study. This study comprised of 20 patients who presented with Study Design: Setting: auricular seroma to the Department of ENT, HSK Hospital, Bagalkot from August 2020 to December 2022. The Methods: diagnosis of the auricular pseudocyst was made clinically. Out of 20 patients, 10 patients were taken up for wide bore needle aspiration followed by contour pressure dressing, and 10 patients underwent the window procedure. Patients were followed up for a period of 6 months. In the 10 cases primarily taken up for needle aspiration, there was a recurrence in 8 out of the Results: 10 cases; while 2 patients showed successful outcome during the 6 months of follow-up. Of the 10 cases taken up primarily for the window procedure, no recurrences were noted as compared to aspiration group, which was statistically signi?cant (p=0.0003) Considering the rate of success and minimal complications encountered in our study, we would . Conclusion: advocate the use of deroo?ng technique for achieving better outcome in the management of pinna pseudocysts.

RESUMEN
One hundred and three cases of carpal ganglion were treated by simple aspiration and manipulation with one year of follow up. The success rate was 72 percent. Therefore, these procedures may provide an alternative choice of initial treatment rather than immediately starting with a complicated procedure.
RESUMEN
An analysis and CT findings in 21 adult patients of spontaneous intracerebral hematoma(SICH) mixed with CSF who were admitted to the Fatima Hospital from December 1986 to May 1989. The following results were obtained; 1) We could differentiated SICH that have inhomogenous density and thought that it is composed of blood, CSF and blood-CSF mixture. 2) Previously reported pathways that intracerebral hematoma rupture into the ventricle are caudate nucleus and thalamus but intracerebral hematoma can be mixed with CSF through the subarachnoid space of Sylvian fissure as an another route. 3) Intracerebral hematoma mixed with CSF was removed easily, safely and enoughly with simple aspiration method as like resoluted hematoma in subacute or chronic phase. 4) The prognosis of patients with SICH mixed with CSF was very good unlike to that of patients with pure intracerebral hematoma and/or ventricular hemorrhage.
