| Popis: |
A 42-year-old man presented with a left-sided supralobular total ear amputation resulting from an occupational accident. Initial dissection of the amputated ear revealed no suitable vessel for anastomosis. The fenestrated cartilage with its posterior skin excised was attached as a composite graft. Four days postoperatively, it was observed that 90% of the graft was viable. Three weeks later, subtotal separation of the ear (80%) was performed combined with skin grafting for surfacing the postauricular defect. At one-year follow-up, there was partial cartilage resorption with pigmentation and minimal hyperemia of the overlying skin. |
