    Area of Science:

    • Plastic Surgery
    • Otolaryngology
    • Regenerative Medicine

    Background:

    • Post-traumatic auricular deformities present unique challenges in plastic surgery.
    • The complexity necessitates tailored surgical strategies for each patient.
    • Existing literature often lacks a systematic approach to reconstruction.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To present a systematic guideline for assessing auricular defects.
    • To emphasize fundamental principles in plastic surgery for ear reconstruction.
    • To highlight the application of tissue transplantation techniques in challenging cases.

    Main Methods:

    • Review of fundamental plastic surgery principles.
    • Analysis of tissue transplantation techniques relevant to auricular reconstruction.
    • Case-by-case assessment framework for auricular deformities.

    Main Results:

    • A structured approach to evaluating auricular defects was outlined.
    • Key principles for successful ear reconstruction were identified.
    • Effective application of tissue transplantation for auricular defects was demonstrated.

    Conclusions:

    • Individualized assessment and planning are crucial for post-traumatic ear reconstruction.
    • Fundamental plastic surgery techniques and tissue transplantation are vital.
    • The presented guideline aids surgeons in managing complex auricular deformities.
