Abstract:
A preauricular tag accompanying a mild microtia was utilized in reconstruction of the anterior aspect of the helix and the crus helicis. We believe that three-dimensional reconstruction of the crus helicis with a deep cymba conchae in microtia reconstruction is an important component in achieving a normal-looking auricle.
