One thing to be remembered before excising auricular appendages is
- These appendages are known to contain a bar of elastic cartialge, which can extend deep into the underlying tissues
- It is very superficial containing just a skin tag but can bleed alarmingly
- It is very superficial, and just contains skin tag and hence can be easily removed
- Auricular appendages are commonly seen in the middle ear
