9 Auricular Reconstruction
Special Considerations
Care when handling cartilage. Use 4.0/5.0 long standing absorbable sutures, on a round bodied/tapercut needle to approximate cartilage. Take particular care to accu­rately approximate the helical rim, to prevent notching. Consider a pressure dress­ing to prevent the occurrence of a haematoma. Avoid clothing which need to be removed over the head in the immediate post-operative period.

Healing by Secondary Intention
Indications: Partial thickness defects (skin only/skin+cartilage).
Technique: The partial thickness defect is left to heal by secondary intention. In
case of skin only defects consideration can be given for perforating the underlying cartilage with a small punch biopsy core, to encourage granulation tissue ingress from the medial tissues. This can be useful, especially when perichondrium is lost.
Tips: A good wound care regimen is essential. The obvious disadvantage of this
approach is the prolonged healing period and reliance on patient/career co- operation. Distortion due to scarring can be minimised by careful case selection and restricting its use to small- and medium-sized defects.
Skin Grafts
Indications: Partial thickness defects (skin only/skin+cartilage).
Technique: A suitable template is made of the defect, which is transferred to the
donar site to harvest the graft. The graft is sutured to the defect, with additional “long” sutures that can be used for “tying” over the bolus. The graft can be “quilted” to the base, to decrease the risk of haematoma and dead space. A non-adherent dressing is laid over the sutured graft, over which a cotton wool ball/sponge soaked in proavin or a suitable antibiotic ointment is paced. The tie-over bolus sutures are now used to hold the dressing in place. The sutures and pack are removed in 7–10days time (Fig.9.2a–d).
Tips: For skin only defects, consideration can be given for perforating the under-
lying cartilage with a small punch biopsy core, to encourage granulation tissue ingress from the medial tissues. This can be useful, especially when perichondrium is lost. Full-thickness grafts are preferred to split skin grafts.

9 Auricular Reconstruction
Revolving Door Flap
Indications: Medium and large skin+cartilage defects and posterior skin intact.
Technique: A template is made to accurately reect the defect and the dimen-
sions marked out in the posterior auricular surface/mastoid skin, with the base cen­tred along the auriculocephalic sulcus. Skin is circumferentially incised and undermined anteriorly and posteriorly, taking meticulous care to maintain a central subcutaneous pedicle, along the auriculocephalic sulcus. The ap is pulled through the defect, like a revolving door and sutured into the defect. The secondary defect is closed primarily by undermining the surrounding tissues (Fig.9.3a–j, k–s).
Tips: The anterior margin of the ap in the posterior auricular surface is marked
out to overlap the underlying cartilage defect. The pinna will be “pinned” back when the secondary defect is closed. This can interfere with the t of an existing hearing aid and would have to be discussed with the patient.

9 Auricular Reconstruction
Post-Auricular Artery Island Flap
Indications: Skin+cartilage defects and posterior skin intact.
Technique: An accurate template is made of the defect and the dimensions
marked on the posterior auricular surface/mastoid skin. The ap is incised laterally, superiorly and medially down to the periosteum, but only through the skin inferi­orly, to maintain the vascular pedicle. Inferiorly the skin is raised in the subcutane­ous plane and the island ap elevated deep to the vascular pedicle (post- auricular artery/post-auricular muscle), on the surface of the periosteum. The required mobil­ity is obtained by undermining the ap inferiorly around the pedicle. A tunnel is created from the anterior margin of the ap into the defect. The ap is mobilised into the defect and sutured into place. The secondary defect is closed primarily by undermining the surrounding tissues (Fig.9.4a–f).
Tips: Care should be taken to avoid damage to the pedicle during dissection and
transfer. The tunnel should be of an adequate dimension to avoid compression of the pedicle. The pinna will be “pinned” back when the secondary defect is closed. This can interfere with the t of an existing hearing aid and would have to be discussed with the patient.
