The Posterior Auricular Muscle: A Useful Anatomical Landmark for Otoplasty

Journal of Laryngology and Otology, 2017
AbstractBackground: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 ...

Bilateral Muscular Tinnitus Due to Myoclonus of Extrinsic Auricular Muscles

Auris Nasus Larynx, 2015
The muscular tinnitus due to an extrinsic auricular myoclonus is an extremely rare disorder which demonstrates a semirhythmic involuntary movement of the ear. We report a 33-year-old man with clicking tinnitus caused by focal myoclonic jerks of bilateral posterior auricularis muscle and bilateral temporalis muscle.

Intrinsic Auricular Muscles and Auricular Form

Pediatrics, 1982
Plical folding of the cartilagenous ear plate is largely determined by the insertions of four extrinsic and seven intrinsic auricular muscles. Dissection of ten external auricles from anencephalic fetuses of six or more months' gestation was done.

Abnormality of Auricular Muscles in Congenital Auricular Deformities

Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery, 2015
It has been suggested that there is a close association of abnormality in auricular muscles with various congenital auricular deformities. However, there has been no investigation to determine what muscles are involved and how they affect the deformity.

Muscle spindles in nonhuman primate extrinsic auricular muscles

The Anatomical Record, 1977
AbstractMuscle spindles were sought in peri‐auricular muscles of several primate species (rhesus monkey, woolly monkey, and baboon). Transverse sections cut at 10 μ and stained primarily by a silver impregnation technique were examined using light microscopy. Spindles were identified on the basis of standard criteria.

Ear Projection and the Posterior Auricular Muscle Insertion

Plastic &amp Reconstructive Surgery, 1997
Prominent 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.

Auricular Hypermobility due to Agenesis of the Extrinsic Muscles

Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery, 1996
A patient is presented with complaints of a hypermobile right ear due to agenesis of the superior and posterior auricularis muscles and a thin concha cartilage. Suturing the concha cartilage to the mastoid bone and temporal fascia gave sufficient support of the external ear without creating a gross difference in appearance of both ears.

Stahlʼs Ear Caused by an Abnormal Intrinsic Auricular Muscle

Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery, 1999
Stahl'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.

Posterior Auricular Muscle Flap with Otoplasty

2013
In 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 ...
