Ear Projection and the Posterior Auricular Muscle Insertion
Plastic & Reconstructive Surgery, 1997Prominent ears is a common congenital anomaly affecting approximately 5 percent of the general population. The etiology has been attributed to three basic deformities in the ear structure: valgus of the concha with a cranioauricular angle greater than 40 degrees, underfolding of the anthelix, and rarely, hypertrophy of the concha.

Stahlʼs Ear Caused by an Abnormal Intrinsic Auricular Muscle
Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery, 1999Stahl's ear in a 12-year-old girl was treated surgically. During the operation, we discovered that the transverse muscle had an abnormal course, and we concluded that this muscle had caused the deformity. Treatment was accomplished by cartilage incision and transposition of the muscle to its normal position.

The posterior auricular muscle: a useful anatomical landmark for otoplasty
The Journal of Laryngology & Otology, 2017AbstractBackground:The correct anatomical placement of conchomastoid sutures during suture otoplasty can sometimes prove challenging. If the suture vector is inaccurate, reduction can be difficult and this may lead to malrotation of the pinna.Methods:This paper describes the adoption of the auricularis posterior muscle, which runs from the mastoid to ...

Posterior Auricular Muscle Flap with Otoplasty
2013In order to overcome some of the drawbacks of conchal reduction and to present another reliable prominent ear correction technique, the author has used the posterior auricular muscle. The purpose was to overcome the risks of conchal reduction surgery and to utilize the muscle combined with perichondrioplasty (perichondrial flap tacked posteriorly) for ...

Hemifacial spasm and posterior auricular muscle.
Electromyography and clinical neurophysiology, 2006We aimed to investigate to which extent posterior auricular muscle (PAM) was affected and whether it contributed to the reflex activity in hemifacial spasm (HFS) patients. 19 HFS patients' spasm activities were recorded from facial muscles. Spasm activity of PAM was recorded synchronously on the symptomatic side in all patients. Lateral spread of blink

Splitted Posterior Auricular Muscle Flap Combined With Traditional Otoplasty
Journal of Craniofacial Surgery, 2013This article presents a modified technique to split and reposition the posterior auricular muscle flap as an adjunct to traditional otoplasty.Although numerous techniques have been described for the correction of prominent ear deformity, there is still a continuing debate on which operative method achieves the best results.

Correspondence of the auricular acupoint with the upper trapezius muscle: A electromyographic study
Complementary Therapies in Clinical Practice, 2010Presently, acupuncture is a technique considered to be capable of stimulating the regulatory systems of the organism, such as the central nervous system, the endocrine system and the immunological system. The median frequency of the upper trapezium muscle with 40% and 60% of maximal voluntary contraction (MVC) of 15 healthy volunteers, was analyzed ...

Prominent ears are the most common deformity of the external ear in children. Since 1881 various treatments have been described but the choice of procedure still remains at the surgeon's preference. A posterior auricular muscle malposition is frequently present in prominent ear deformity even though this muscle shows only a rudimentary function in man.
