Abstract
In a Tanzer group 2B or group 3 constricted ear, the short helix must be elongated with additional tissues. To do this, we have developed a new method of surgical repair using 2 pennant-shaped rim flaps. Six constricted ear patients underwent correctional ear plasty using this method. Four of the deformities were Tanzer group 2b and 2 were group 3. Our surgical procedure elongated the patients' helix from 7 to 22 mm, leaving them with smooth curvature and a good color match to the adjoining skin.
