چکیده
BACKGROUND Some loop ear surgical procedures include cartilage section or abrasion, while others involve antihelix folding by simple suture. METHODS Our results with the Mustardé technique are presented. This procedure avoids an aggressive action on the ear cartilage and makes antihelix folding easier. RESULTS Good aesthetic results were obtained in all our patients, with a low complication rate. CONCLUSIONS We conclude this cartilage technical procedure has an advantage over the aggressive ones, with a low complication rate.

متن کاملCartilage splitting without stitches: technique and outcomes.
IMPORTANCE Otoplasty procedures usually involve cartilage sparing, with stitches or cartilage scoring. These techniques have been widely reviewed in the literature. The technique reported in this study requires neither stitches nor rasping but rather a complete separation of the helix and antihelix, with nontransfixing incisions to break the cartilaginous springs. OBJECTIVES To evaluate the t...
