Abstract
This comprehensive review thoroughly examines the pivotal role of cartilage in otologic surgery, elucidating its multifaceted contributions to both cosmetic and functional outcomes. From reconstructing the external ear to reinforcing the tympanic membrane and restoring the ossicular chain, cartilage emerges as a versatile and resilient biological material with unique properties that make it an invaluable resource for otologic surgeons. The review explores the nuances of cartilage's applications in various surgical contexts, emphasizing its significance in promoting tissue regeneration and healing. The text delves into advancements in tissue engineering, biodegradable scaffolds, and 3D printing technology, pointing towarda future where more precise and personalized interventions may redefine the landscape of otologic surgery. The convergence of these innovations holds the promise of elevating the standard of care, minimizing complications, and improving the quality of life for patients undergoing cartilage-based otologic procedures. This synthesis of current knowledge and future possibilities provides a valuable resource for otologists, surgeons, and researchers in the dynamic field of otology.
