Background:
It is rare to find pseudoepitheliomatous hyperplasia (PEH) on the auricle. PEH should be differentiated from squamous cell carcinoma (SCC). Diagnosis is made after surgery as a biopsy is often inconclusive. A free or pedicled skin flap is needed to avoid deformation of the auricle.
Methods:
Adjacent pedicled skin flap is a good option for reconstruction. Moreover, it was shown how to repair the wound in the following two cases.
Results:
The flaps grew well after surgery, and the wound healed well.
Conclusion:
PEH is a benign lesion. Adjacent pedicled skin flap is a good option for reconstruction, which can avoid deformation of the auricle.
