[A method for the reconstruction of perforating radiogenic defects of the auricle (author's transl)]. 1977

E R Kastenbauer

Perforating radiogenic defects of the auricle in the area of the cymba, conchal cavity and triangular fossa can be reconstructed in a one stage procedure by a pedicled composite flap of conchal cartilage and skin. The conchal donor area is covered with a free skin-fat-graft from the lobule or with a full-thickness retroauricular graft from the unaffected ear. The defect reconstruction on the retroauricular side can be carried out with a pedicled skin flap from the unaffected adjacent retroauricular region.
