Abstract

Nonmicrovascular replantation of an avulsed auricula as a composite graft is an unreliable solution. The use of retroauricular pocket to enhance survival of the composite ear graft is a multistage procedure and aesthetic results are poor. In this case report the vascularity of the composite graft is attempted to be increased by transposing fascial flap. Fifty-four year old man had an amputation of his ear due to a human bite. The amputated ear was reattached to its original position as a composite graft. Afterwards a temporoparietal fascia flap has been transposed between the posterior skin and the cartilage of the amputated ear. Amputated ear had been revascularised completely without any distorsion at the cartilages. Acceptable aesthetic result was obtained. An ear amputation can succesfully be replanted as a composite graft by using the described technique in a single stage.

Özet

Mikrovasküler anastomoz ile replantasyonun uygun olmadığı kulak amputasyonlarında kompozit greft uygulanmasının etkinliği azdır. Ampute parçanın retroauriküler bölgeye gömülerek yaşatılmaya çalışılması ise estetik açıdan başarısız sonuçlara neden olmakta ve en az iki seans gerekmektedir. Bu vaka sunumunda ise fasyal flep transpozisyonu ile kompozit greftin yaşaya bilirliğini artırtmak yöntemi denenmiştir. Ellidört yaşındaki erkek hastada insan ısırığına bağlı olarak kulak ampütasyonu meydana gelmiştir. Ampute parça kompozit greft gibi orijinal yerine dikildi. Daha sonra ampute kulak parçasının arka cildi ile kıkırdağı arasına temporoparietal fasya transpoze edildi. Vakada ampute parça tam olarak vaskülarite kazandı. Kıkırdakta herhangi bir distorsiyon meydana gelmedi. Estetik açıdan oldukça tatmin edici görüntü elde edildi. İnsan ısırığı nedeni ile ampute olan kulak parçası tarif edilen teknikle implante edilmesi halinde tek seansda başarılı sonuç almak mümkündür.
