  • Title: The modified converse technique in combination with cavum rotation.
    Author: Mattheis S, Siegert R.
    Journal: Facial Plast Surg; 2004 Nov; 20(4):271-5. PubMed ID: 15778914.
    Abstract:
    We report our experiences in 210 patients with protruding ears who underwent a surgical correction of their deformity using a modified "Converse technique." The technique combines a posterior incomplete cartilage incision with permanent cartilage sutures and a cavum rotation if necessary. The described technique provides a good anterior width and normal relief, with shaped anthelix and crus superior, can be achieved.
