Traumatic Seroma of the Pinna
That trauma from friction may irritate the perichondrium and produce a subperichondial serous or serosanguinous seroma. A seroma will usually persist for several days after the original injury.

Hematoma of the Pinna
Hematoma of the pinna is usually the result of blunt trauma sustained during activities such as boxing or wrestling. If the trauma tears one of the small vessels that lie between the perichondrium and...
Small Hematoma of the Pinna Before Drainage
Note the small hematoma of the pinna located in the lower portion of the concha.
Small Hematoma of the Pinna After Drainage
The hematoma of the pinna has been drained and a button has been sutured to hold the perichondrium against the auricular cartilage until it has healed.
Frostbite
Tissue damage from extreme cold is similar in appearance to that sustained from heat injuries. Note the large serous filled bulla with edema of the surrounding skin. This is a second-degree frostbite.
Frostbite Induced Ossification of the Auricular...
This soft tissue radiograph of the pinna of a patient who experienced severe frostbite many years previously revealed extensive calcification throughout the posterior superior portion of the auricular...
