Negative pressure wound therapy (NPWT) has had an expanded role in the management of complex wounds including its increasing use for complex wounds in the head and neck region. Challenges for use in the head and neck region include variations in surface topography and the proximity of sensitive mouth, nose, ear, eye, and tracheal openings. Despite these challenges, NPWT has been used in the head and neck immediately following free flap surgery, to prepare wounds for skin grafting or local flaps, to treat orocutaneous and pharyngocutaneous fistulas, to treat necrotizing and deep neck space infections, to temporize and palliate, and to treat chronic wounds with exposed bone and hardware among others. This review demonstrates the proven track record of successful uses of NPWT in the aforementioned scenarios, provides suggestions to improve efficacy, as well as an algorithm for use in certain clinical situations.

Objective Auricular pseudocysts are rare, painless, benign intracartilaginous cysts of the auricle that are not lined by epithelium and have no known aetiology. Method This was a prospective study conducted in an ENT department from January 2020 to June 2022. In 21 patients, complete aspiration of the pseudocyst with enhanced negative drainage was performed. They were followed for a minimum of six months. Results All patients completely responded to the negative drainage treatment. No cases of recurrence or obvious deformities were observed. Conclusion Aspiration with intensified negative drainage was associated with a positive response in patients with auricular pseudocysts. Complete resolution of the swelling can be achieved without any serious complications. Thus, it appears to be a simple and effective method for managing the condition.
