Title: Staged, laminated, costal cartilage framework for ear reconstruction. Author: Matsumoto K, Maeda M, Fujikawa M. Journal: Clin Plast Surg; 1990 Apr; 17(2):273-85. PubMed ID: 2189643. Abstract: Two features of greatest importance in achieving a normal appearance in the reconstruction of an ear with microtia are that a conchal component with sufficient size, shape, and depth is present; and that auricular projection, sufficient in degree to show contours that appear normal from a posterior view, is present. The authors describe the construction of a staged, laminated framework that helps achieve these goals.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
