Donor-Site Morbidity of Ear Cartilage Autografts
Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery, 2008The external ear provides a versatile cartilage source for reconstructive procedures, especially for augmentative rhinoplasty. The authors evaluated the short- and long-term morbidity associated with ear cartilage harvest using concha, tragus, and scapha as donor sites.The study included 52 patients in whom a cartilage graft from the external ear was ...

The use of ear cartilage for auriculoplasty was no novelty by the start of the 1970s. It had been used successfully in different ways for partial ear repair (Adams, Navabi, Cardoso and Sperli, Antia, Millard, Lewin and Argamoso, and others), but the opinion prevailed that there was not enough cartilage for subtotal reconstruction.

External Ear Reconstruction With Autogenous Rib Cartilage
Plastic Surgical Nursing, 1995For more than 30 years, children born without an ear or with deformities have had their defects corrected by ear reconstruction with autogenous rib cartilage graft. Despite the common use of this procedure, total ear reconstruction continues to be one of the greatest challenges facing the reconstructive surgical team.

Simplified harvesting of the ear cartilage graft
Aesthetic Plastic Surgery, 1986A simplified technique of harvesting of the ear cartilage graft is described which (1) uses a postauricular incision to minimize the visible scars, (2) removes the whole floor of the conchal fossa to avoid the irregularities, and (3) uses a tie-over dressing to eliminate the need for a head dressing. This technique has been used on 88 patients with one

Atelectasis After Bilateral Costal Cartilage Ear Reconstruction
Journal of Craniofacial SurgeryThis study, through the case analysis of 2 patients with congenital bilateral microtia, explores the causes and preventive strategies of atelectasis after bilateral rib cartilage extraction surgery. Although ear reconstruction technology is quite mature, it may lead to complications, such as atelectasis, due to thoracic surgery and general anesthesia ...

The conical cartilage of the cat's middle ear
The Journal of Laryngology & Otology, 1985AbstractThe object of this study was to investigate the anatomy, histology, and possible function of a conical structure found in the middle ear of the cat. This conical structure lies across the dorso-caudal compartment of the middle ear. It is directly related to the course of the chorda tympani nerve in the middle ear.

Grafting the Nasal Dorsum with Tandem Ear Cartilage
Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery, 2003A technique for autogenous grafting of the nasal dorsum with ear cartilage is suggested based on the results of 25 consecutive cases. The technique involves (1) harvesting the entire cymba conchae and cavum conchae of the ear; (2) separating them and suturing them to each other in tandem fashion; (3) filling the underside concavity of the cymba conchae

Studies on glycosaminoglycans of regenerating rabbit ear cartilage
Developmental Biology, 1981Abstract Cartilage regeneration in the adult rabbit ear was examined with respect to glycosaminoglycan (GAG) synthesis at various stages of the regeneration process. Increased hyaluronic acid and chondroitin sulfate synthesis was first seen 31 days after wounding, when a metachromatic cartilage matrix could be distinguished from blastemal cells ...

Total En Bloc Reconstruction of the Alar Cartilage Using Autogenous Ear Cartilage
Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery, 1995A new technique is described for increasing the nasal tip by using an en bloc autogenous ear cartilage graft in such a manner as to create, in essence, a replacement of the entire ipsilateral alar cartilage.

Biomedical Materials, 2015
Scaffolds are widely used to reconstruct cartilage. Yet, the fabrication of a scaffold with a highly organized microenvironment that closely resembles native cartilage remains a major challenge. Scaffolds derived from acellular extracellular matrices are able to provide such a microenvironment.
