A Novel Algorithm for Autologous Ear Reconstruction

Abstract: Sculpting a tridimensional autologous rib cartilage framework is essential to restore a natural ear shape and becomes routine with preoperative training, but management of the skin is the key to minimizing complications. Here the authors provide a classification scheme to manage auricular skin: Type 1 is a Z-plasty with transposition of the lobule; type 2 is a transfixion incision of the microtic ear; type 3 exposes the cartilage remnants through a cutaneous incision. They also explain how to choose between th… Show more

“…This may be due to the heterogeneity of the participant groups, difficulty of the simulation task, lack of prior exposure by participants and limited corrective instruction provided during or between attempts. Increased number of attempts in the simulation may be necessary before baseline performance expectations or gains in skill can be quantified 2,10 . No differentiation could be made between educational modality (video versus live demonstration), which may be attributed to inadequate exposures to the instructional materials and limitations of the educational environment.…”

“…En los últimos años, los avances en la técnica han permitido lograr resultados de mayor calidad [1][2][3][4] . El cartílago costal sigue siendo, sin discusión, el material de elección para la construcción de la nueva estructura o "molde", uno de sus principales inconvenientes es la deformidad de contorno que puede producir en la zona dadora en pacientes en crecimiento.…”
