  • Title: Otoplasty: something old, something new. Reconstruction of the external ear using fresh cadaver homograft ear cartilage and a sternomastoid myocutaneous flap.
    Author: Campbell G.
    Journal: Br J Plast Surg; 1983 Apr; 36(2):262-6. PubMed ID: 6831111.
    Abstract:
    By combining the very old concept of using fresh cadaver homograft ear cartilage with the more modern idea of a musculo-cutaneous flap, a new ear has been constructed for a patient who was considered unsuitable for standard reconstructive procedures. The early cosmetic result appears satisfactory and the patient's hearing has been significantly improved.
