ABSTRACT
BACKGROUND AND

OBJECTIVES:

Otohematoma is a fairly common disease in otolaryngologic clinics. The principle treatment is composed of removal of the hematoma and compression. But this method is inconvenient both to the patient and doctor. To find another alternative that is simple and easy, we tried steroid injection in otohematoma. Steroid is used in various kinds of hemangioma, and if it is effective in hemangioma it also can be speculated that same phenomenon can be happened to otohematoma. MATERIALS AND

METHODS:

One hundred otohematoma patients were treated with triamcinolone injection on the lesion sites after aspiration of hematoma or seroma. The injection was repeated as necessary.

RESULT:

Among the 100 otohematoma patients 96 patients(96%) were healed without any complications. The numbers of injection needed were usually within 3 times(81%) 1 time(42%), 2 times (20%), 3 times(19%).

CONCLUSION:

Steroid injection is a very good alternative in the treatment of otohematoma. It is easy to perform, convenient to the patients and usually results in complete resolution. The proposed mechanisms are vasoconstricting and anti-inflammatory action of steroid.
