This study reports a successful auricular reconstruction for a traumatically missing ear using osseointegrated implants. The technique allowed for a stable prosthetic fit and maintained skin integrity without adverse reactions.

Area of Science:

  • Plastic Surgery
  • Otolaryngology
  • Biomedical Engineering

Background:

  • Traumatic auricular defects present significant reconstructive challenges.
  • Traditional methods for auricular reconstruction have limitations in long-term stability and aesthetics.
  • Osseointegrated implants offer a promising solution for prosthetic rehabilitation.

Observation:

  • A 31-year-old female patient with a traumatically missing right ear underwent reconstruction.
  • Surgical and prosthetic procedures were meticulously performed and documented.
  • The patient's skin penetration sites for the implants were closely monitored.

Findings:

  • Successful auricular reconstruction was achieved using a combination of surgical and prosthetic techniques.
  • The auricular prosthesis was securely retained by osseointegrated implants.

  • No adverse skin reactions or complications were observed at the implant sites.

    • Implications:

    • This case demonstrates the efficacy of osseointegrated implants for auricular prostheses in traumatic ear reconstruction.
    • The described technique offers a viable, stable, and aesthetically pleasing solution for patients with significant ear loss.
    • Further research into long-term outcomes and patient-reported satisfaction is warranted.
