Abstract

Preauricular sinus is a congenital anomaly that occurs because of a malformation during the merging of first and second branchial clefts, which form the ear in the course of embryonic development. Although it is usually nonsymptomatic, it can rarely be seen together with recurrent swelling and discharge, and inflammatory infections. A preauricular sinus was observed in front of the right ear of an 18-year-old male patient with a recurrent swelling and wound infection for 3 years; and the case was discussed in the guidance of the literature. It would be important to consider preauricular sinus as the basis of recurrent swelling and inflammatory skin infections and wounds of the preauricular region, which do not respond to treatment nor heal. Recurrence may take place in the late period, in case of an inadequate resection of the fistula tract. Preauricular sinus/cyst should be taken into account in differential diagnosis of preauricular region lesions.

Özet

Preauriküler sinüs embriyonik gelişimde kulağı oluşturan birinci ve ikinci brankial yarığın birleşmesi sırasında meydana gelen bozukluk onucu oluşan konjenital bir anomalidir. Genellikle semptomsuz olup, nadiren tekrarlayan rekürren şişlikle beraber akıntı, üzerinde inflamasyon meydana gelen ve enfeksiyonlarla bir arada olabilmektedir. Sağ kulak önünde 3 yıldır tekrarlayan rekürrent şişlik ve yara enfeksiyonu bulunan 18 yaşındaki erkek hastada preauriküler sinüs saptandı ve literatür eşliğinde vaka tartışıldı. Özellikle preauriküler bölgenin iyileşmeyen ve tedavilere cevap vermeyen tekrarlayan rekürren şişlikle beraber akıntı, üzerinde inflamasyon meydana gelen deri enfeksiyonu ve yaralarının emininde preauriküler sinüsün de olabileceği unutulmamalıdır. Fistül traktusunun yetersiz rezeke edildiği vakalarda geç dönemde nüks meydana gelebilmektedir. Preauriküler sinüs/kist preauriküler bölge lezyonlarında ayırıcı tanıda düşünülmelidir.
