Title: [A method for the reconstruction of perforating radiogenic defects of the auricle (author's transl)]. Author: Kastenbauer ER. Journal: Laryngol Rhinol Otol (Stuttg); 1977 Aug; 56(8):661-4. PubMed ID: 143559. Abstract: 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.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
