Abstract:
Objective To probe the definition of cicateicial cryptotia and its plastic and reconstructive surgery.Methods Local skin flaps combined with full-thickness skin graft by zonation grafting technique were used to treat twenty-six patients with thirty-three cicateicial cryptotia.A cicateicial adhesion between auricle and cranial wall and mastoidea was removed,cranioaural angle was reformed,and helix and auricular lobule were reconstructed.Results All skin flaps survived,and the survival rate of skin grafts reached over 95 ％.The appearance of auricle was very good,its major constructions might be noted,and cranioaural angle nearly returned to normal.The follow-up results from three months to one year post-operation showed that the appearance of auricle kept well,and the patients felt satisfactory.Conclusions In view of deformity characteristics of cicateicial cryptotia,it might be an effective approach to treat cicateicial cryptotia to take a seris of appropriate surgical procedures.
