Rosie had a condition called an Aural Hematoma. This is when blood vessels in the ear break and bleed in between the layers of the ear. It can be caused by anything from ear infection to vasculitis. The hematoma can be treated with surgery, like we did for Rosie below. Follow her through surgery from intubation (putting in a temporary breathing tube) to final post-surgery look. Surgery is the most effective way to avoid re-occurrence and the best cosmetic healing. However, sometimes just treating the ear infection and allowing the hematoma to absorb will work. Other times, draining the blood and treating with steroids will contribute to healing.
