Abstract
Ears are special and unique structures that, if damaged, are key difficult to reconstruct. They are often underestimated during the acute treatment of burns. However, thermal injury of relatively moderate proportions can irreparably alter their shape and appearance. The usual management of auricular burns includes either conservative topical treatment, skin grafting with or without dermal substitutes and ear amputation during the acute phase or delayed reconstructive techniques for the treatment of secuelae. Herein we present our experience with a revolving-door (RD) flap used to cover a defect concerning the antihelical fold as a single stage procedure for the acute treatment of auricular-conchal burns.
