Abstract

The auricle›s complex surface anatomy, intricate architecture, and detailed topography present unique challenges for facial plastic surgeons during reconstruction procedures. The auricle›s shape and position play a significant role in contributing to the overall facial aesthetics. During reconstruction, surgeons must carefully consider the size, position, and contour of the new auricle to achieve harmony with other facial landmarks and restore a natural appearance. Beyond its aesthetic role, the auricle serves important functional purposes.
