Partial reconstruction of the pinna due to blunt traumatic injury
Keywords:
ear auricle, injuries, surgery.Abstract
Introduction: The pinna, due to its anatomical situation is susceptible to a series of traumatic or pathological injuries, making its reconstruction a real challenge for the surgeon in charge of maintaining symmetry with the contralateral pinna as its complex structure.
Objective: To present a patient who underwent partial reconstruction of the pinna due to blunt traumatic injury.
Case Report: Patient attended in emergency with loss of the helical border, after a fight, suffered blunt trauma with avulsive injury of the pinna. Reconstruction was performed with a versatile and simple technique, which requires compliance with all the requirements of asepsis, adequate suturing and anatomical repair, to expect good postoperative results, including from the aesthetic point of view.
Conclusions: Early care, aseptic and antisepsis conditions, with a surgical technique according to Weerda's classification, are important to achieve adequate aesthetic results, without complications.
