Abstract

Objective: Tragus is a part of the external ear that develops from the first branchial arch. Accessory ear is a congenital external ear anomaly and has skin elevation containing remnant cartilage. The auricle develops between the 4th and 12th week of the embryonic stage, which groove the tissue from the 1st and 2nd branchial arches. Histologically, the lesions include a rugated epidermis with a thin layer stratum corneum, tiny mature hair follicles, fat lobules, and connective tissue framework that may include a central cartilage core. The aim of this study was to evaluate the accessory tragus lesions with our clinical surgical treatment results.Material and Methods: Lesions usually located anterior to the tragus and along an imaginary line drawn from the tragus to the angle of the mouth. Twelve patients admitted to our clinic between October 2011 and November 2014 were included in this study.Results: Seven boys and five girls between two–13 years old underwent operation. In total, 28 accessory ears were excised. No complications were observed during the procedure, and no complaints were noted in the postoperative period.Conclusion: Generally, limited anomaly is associated with the first and second branchial arch anomalies. Surgical excision is the standard treatment for the lesions which usually due to the esthetic concerns

Özet

Amaç: Aksesuar tragus konjenital olarak ortaya çıkan bir dış kulak patolojisidir. Lezyonlar ciltten kabarık, deri ile aynı renkte ve kıkırdak kalıntısı ile yağ dokusu içerebilen yapıya sahiptirler. Embriyolojik hayatın dördüncü ve on ikinci haftaları arasında kulak gelişimi büyük oranda tamamlanır. Histolojik olarak ince stratum korneum tabakası olan epidermis, olgunlaşmamış kıl folikülleri, yağ lobülleri ve merkezinde bir parça kıkırdak içerebilen bağ doku çatısından oluşurlar. Bizim bu çalışmada amacımız aksesuar tragus lezyonları ve ilgili cerrahi tedavi deneyimlerimizin sunulmasıdır.Gereç ve Yöntemler: Lezyonlar sıklıkla tragus ön bölgesinde ve ağız kenarından tragus arasında çizilen hayali bir çizgi boyunca görülürler. Bu çalışmada Ekim 2011-Kasım 2014 yılları arasında aksesuar kulak nedeniyle başvuran 12 hasta dahil edildi.Bulgular: İki-13 yaşları arasında yedi erkek beş kız hasta opera edildi. Toplam 28 aksesuar tragus eksize edildi. Ameliyat sonrası takiplerinde ek sorun görülmedi.Sonuç: Bazı doğumsal anomalilerle birlikte görülebilen aksesuar tragus sıklıkla izole olarak ortaya çıkmaktadır. Genellikle estetik kaygılar nedeniyle uygulanan cerrahi işlem klasik ve etkili tedavi yöntemidir
