    This study details a surgical technique using auricular cartilage for eyelid and nasal reconstruction. The method provides robust support for soft tissues, proving effective in various reconstructive scenarios.

    Area of Science:

    • Plastic Surgery
    • Otolaryngology
    • Ophthalmology

    Background:

    • The scaphoid fossa cartilage offers structural support for facial soft tissues.
    • Existing methods for obtaining cartilage grafts may have limitations.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To describe a novel technique for harvesting auricular cartilage for reconstructive surgery.
    • To highlight the utility of this cartilage in eyelid and nasal reconstruction.

    Main Methods:

    • Subcutaneous infiltration anesthesia of the auricle.
    • An incision along the posterior helix rim.
    • Dissection between perichondrium and skin to harvest cartilage without anterior skin incision.

    Main Results:

    • The described technique successfully harvests auricular cartilage.

  • The harvested cartilage provides excellent support for soft tissues.
  • The method is applicable to cicatricial entropion, eyelid retraction, and socket reconstruction.
  • Conclusions:

    • This technique offers a reliable method for obtaining auricular cartilage for reconstructive purposes.
    • It is a valuable option for complex eyelid and nasal reconstructions.
