Area of Science:

  • Plastic Surgery
  • Otolaryngology

Background:

  • Otoplasty techniques continually evolve to improve patient outcomes.
  • Prominent ear deformities, such as the "lop" ear, affect facial appearance.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To describe a new incisionless otoplasty technique.
  • To present a method for partial or total correction of "lop" ear deformities.

Main Methods:

  • The technique involves percutaneous placement of retention sutures.
  • This approach results in an incisionless otoplasty.

Main Results:

  • The percutaneous suture technique allows for correction of prominent ear deformities.
  • The incisionless method can be used independently or combined with other otoplasty procedures.

Conclusions:

  • Percutaneous suture placement offers a viable incisionless approach to otoplasty.
  • This technique provides flexibility in managing various ear deformities.
