Abstract

Background: Abscess is a common complication of preauricular sinus in children. Recurrent inflammation and abscess can create complex or obliterate sinus tracts, posing surgeon challenges. Objectives: To describe the clinical and paraclinical characteristics and evaluation of surgical treatment outcomes for stable period of preauricular abscess in children. Materials and methods: Cross sectional study on 48 patients diagnosed with stable period preauricular abscess at Can Tho Children's Hospital. Results: Among the 48 patients studied, the most common age group was 6-10 years old. The most common reason for admission was abscess recurrence, accounting for 42%. Patients with a history of antibiotic and anti-inflammatory treatment alone accounted for a higher proportion than the group with incision or drainage, 52.1% compared to 47.9%. Stratified squamous epithelium and chronic inflammatory tissue account for the majority of histopathological results, accounting for 95%. The postoperative infection rate accounted for only 8.3%. After surgery, the good outcomes accounted for up to 93.75%. None of the patients experienced recurrence during the threemonth follow-up period. Conclusions: After surgery, up to 93.75% of patients were rated good. None of the patients experienced recurrence during the three-month follow-up period.
