    Author: Fuleihan NS, Natout MA, Webster RC, Hariri NA, Samara MA, Smith RC.
    Journal: Otolaryngol Head Neck Surg; 1987 Jul; 97(1):18-23. PubMed ID: 3112681.
    Abstract:
    Amputations of the nose and of the auricle present difficult management problems. Application of simple reattachment techniques, followed by aggressive medical therapy which consists of cooling, anticoagulation, antibiotic coverage, and multiple stab incisions in the amputated tissues, have resulted in the successful replantation of major portions of an amputated nose and an amputated auricle with satisfactory cosmetic results.
