Background:
The ear is a common site of facial injury, affecting facial aesthetics and patients' psychological well-being. Postoperative outcomes vary significantly, and this study aims to explore the influencing factors through retrospective analysis, providing references for clinical treatment.
Methods:
A total of 103 patients were included in this study. The severity of ear tissue damage was graded, and factors such as different degrees of injury, defects in auricular soft tissue, the degree of auricular laceration, and ear cartilage damage were analyzed to determine their impact on wound infection, healing of ear tissue, and patients' psychological health after surgical treatment.
Results:
The cause of ear injury, the extent of damage, and ear cartilage defects increase the likelihood of ear tissue infection after treatment. The depth of auricular injury, the loss of auricular soft tissue, and ear cartilage damage affect postoperative recovery outcomes. Only the degree of auricular laceration impacts patients' psychological health after surgery.
Conclusion:
Various factors influence the treatment outcomes of ear injuries. Understanding the risk factors for poor prognosis in ear injuries in advance can help clinicians improve treatment processes, thereby enhancing patient outcomes.
