Total auricular reconstruction with a three-dimensional costal cartilage framework.
Microtia (hypoplasia of the auricle) is known to result from incomplete development of the auricle during embryonic development so that the size and shape of the deformity vary from case to case. Total auricular reconstruction for microtia …

Modification of the stages in total reconstruction of the auricle: Part I. Grafting the three-dimensional costal cartilage framework for lobule-type microtia.
Total auricular reconstruction for microtia is dependent on the fabricated three-dimensional costal cartilage framework, with all the auricular features and the skin flaps formed and utilized to cover the three-dimensional framework, in whi…

Modification of the stages in total reconstruction of the auricle: Part II. Grafting the three-dimensional costal cartilage framework for concha-type microtia.
Among the microtic disorders, those with the remnant ear, ear lobule, concha, acoustic meatus, tragus, and incisura intertragica are classified as concha-type microtia. From these characteristic factors, concha-type microtia has been though…

Modification of the stages in total reconstruction of the auricle: Part III. Grafting the three-dimensional costal cartilage framework for small concha-type microtia.
The characteristic features of small concha-type microtia are the existence of the remnant ear and lobule and a small indentation representing the concha. Presently, the microtic disorder known as hypoplasia of the middle third of the auric…

Modification of the stages in total reconstruction of the auricle: Part IV. Ear elevation for the constructed auricle.
The contour of the constructed structures of the anterior surface of the auricle tends to diminish after ear elevation; thus it is extremely difficult to obtain the proper projection of the constructed ear without destroying the contour of …

The Z in Z-plasty must have a long trunk.
Erroneous thinking in regard to Z-plasty, which is a fundamental technique in plastic surgery, has been pointed out. In most cases of Z-plasty, the trunk of the Z should be designed longer than the two limbs.…

A new method utilizing the bipedicle flap for reconstruction of the external auditory canal in microtia.
A new technique using the bipedicle flap for reconstruction of microtia is described. This technique makes possible construction of a well-shaped new auricle in the presence of scar formation because of tympanoplasty in which the external a…
