  • Title: Small incision otoplasty for prominent ears.
    Author: Ely JF.
    Journal: Aesthetic Plast Surg; 1988 May; 12(2):63-9. PubMed ID: 3291574.
    Abstract:
    A 5-cm incision and an elliptical skin excision are part of almost all surgical techniques designed to correct prominent ears. It is proposed that two 0.5-cm incisions be used that give access to the lateral surface of the auricular cartilage, which is thinned with a rasp along the antihelix and concha. The skin is not removed at all. Results obtained with this technique are presented.
