Several methods have been described in the literature for the management of acute auricular hematoma. Herein, we review the pathogenesis of auricular hematoma, describe the various treatment modalities, and report a case in which a thermoplastic splint was used to prevent recurrence of hematoma in a patient with immune thrombocytopenic purpura.
