Abstract
Ear keloid is one of the more common forms of keloid, which may cause pain and itching, and is aesthetically unappealing. Recurrence is common with any monotherapy which prompted a comprehensive, multidimensional approach. A 24-year-old female was evaluated in our department on April 6, 2021, due to an "8-year recurrence following a left ear keloid resection." In July 2013, a left auricle keloid excision was performed in a local hospital. One year following the operation, the scar at the surgical site had proliferated, gradually spreading beyond the original scar borders. Patients worry about recurrence after surgery affecting the appearance of the ear. Ear keloid. The patient underwent a 2-stage re-resection of the keloid, followed by postoperative radiotherapy, and triamcinolone acetonide injection around the incision at the time of the second operation. Finally, silicone gel was applied for antiscar treatment. There has been no postoperative recurrence of ear keloid during the 12-month follow-up. For ear keloids, combination therapy offers an improved approach with an excellent aesthetic appearance and less risk of recurrence than traditional monotherapy.
