Abstract:
The aesthetic effect of ear reconstruction depends on a fine reconstruction of the auricle and a good projection of the structure. Constructing a stable auriculo-cephalic angle is one of the primary points to obtain a symmetrical and three-dimensional auricle, making reconstructing a more precise auriculo-cephalic angle a hotspot in this field and has made further progress in recent years. The selection of the supporting framework and the covering tissue, the application of digital technology and tissue engineering technology in the modified ear elevation are reviewed in this article.
