Area of Science:

  • Pediatric Otolaryngology
  • Plastic Surgery

Background:

  • Protruding ears are a common concern in pediatric otolaryngology.
  • Existing otoplasty techniques may vary in complexity and predictability.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To introduce a simple, safe, and predictable otoplasty method.
  • To detail a specific surgical technique for correcting prominent ears.

Main Methods:

  • Detailed description of a novel otoplasty technique.
  • Emphasis on creating an antehelical fold using modified Mustarde sutures.
  • Inclusion of specific modifications for the lobule and conchal setback.

Main Results:

  • The proposed otoplasty method is simple to execute.
  • The technique yields safe and predictable aesthetic results.
  • Addresses key aesthetic components: antehelical fold, lobule, and conchal setback.

Conclusions:

  • The described otoplasty technique offers a reliable solution for prominent ears in pediatric patients.
  • This method simplifies the surgical process while achieving desired cosmetic outcomes.
