  • Title: A technique for the correction of cryptotia.
    Author: Chana JS, Fourie LR.
    Journal: Ann Plast Surg; 1997 Sep; 39(3):261-5. PubMed ID: 9326706.
    Abstract:
    An alternative technique for the correction of cryptotia is presented that involves the use of a trefoil flap in combination with a preauricular flap. The main advantage is the simple design of the skin incisions, which provides sufficient skin for an adequate release of the invaginated helix and allows tension-free postauricular skin closure without the need for a skin graft.
