Description

This illustration shows an otohematoma, a collection of blood between the ear's cartilage and skin, typically caused by trauma or injury. The visualization highlights the swelling, bruising, and potential displacement of the ear tissue. This condition can lead to deformation of the ear if not properly treated. The image is useful for healthcare professionals and ENT specialists to understand the appearance of an otohematoma, aiding in diagnosis and the need for prompt drainage to prevent permanent damage or complications.
