Abstract
Injuries of the auricle can range from simple lacerations to complete avulsions. Many techniques of ear replantation have been described in the literature in addition to the type and extent of the involved auricular structures. A direct reattachment of the amputated pinna without microsurgery is rarely successful due to necrosis of the avulsed fragment. Whereas, reconstructions with pocket methods and their variations might lead to better results. In this article we would like to discuss some of these approaches and demonstrate a two-stage reconstruction technique for subtotal avulsion of the auricle.
