  • Title: Analysis in otoplasty.
    Author: Becker DG, Lai SS, Wise JB, Steiger JD.
    Journal: Facial Plast Surg Clin North Am; 2006 May; 14(2):63-71, v. PubMed ID: 16750764.
    Abstract:
    The normal auricle has a well-recognized shape, and significant deviation from "normal" is immediately evident. In particular, prominent ears are readily apparent and are a relatively frequent cause of patient concern. Correction of the outstanding ear requires a careful understanding of the discrete elements that compose the normal ear. Careful anatomic analysis to determine the precise cause allows appropriate preoperative planning for the correction of a protruding ear.
