A new novel technique was used to manage seroma of the auricle as a primary treatment. Ten cases of seroma or hematoma auricle was managed using aspiration and splint suturing which added a cosmetic value and also avoided a dressing. All cases were followed up regularly. Primary aspiration and splint suturing was found to be a simple and effective treatment method for seroma auricle.
