📌 3 Key Takeaways

🎯
Objective & Hypothesis:Objective: In this study, we aimed to determine whether auricle protrusion at three different levels (superior, middle and inferior) ofpatients who underwent ear surgery with the postauricular incision resulted in any significant changes compared to the healthy ear of thesame patients.Methods: All cases in which the retroauricular/postauricular incision was performed during any type of ear surgery at theOtorhinolaryngology Clinic of Şanlıurfa Mehmet Akif İnan Training and Research Hospital between June 2019 and June 2020 were includedin the study.
📊
Key Findings & Data:All three measurements were performed in both operated and non-operated ears at the postoperative third month.Results: Of the 61 patients evaluated in the study, 52.5% were male (n = 32) and 47.5% were female (n = 29).
💡
Conclusion & Impact:In future studies, further useful findings can be obtained by performing preoperative measurements and comparing them withpostoperative values.

Abstract

Objective: In this study, we aimed to determine whether auricle protrusion at three different levels (superior, middle and inferior) ofpatients who underwent ear surgery with the postauricular incision resulted in any significant changes compared to the healthy ear of thesame patients.Methods: All cases in which the retroauricular/postauricular incision was performed during any type of ear surgery at theOtorhinolaryngology Clinic of Şanlıurfa Mehmet Akif İnan Training and Research Hospital between June 2019 and June 2020 were includedin the study. The longest distance between the auricle and the mastoid skin was recorded in millimeters from the superior, middle andinferior points. All three measurements were performed in both operated and non-operated ears at the postoperative third month.Results: Of the 61 patients evaluated in the study, 52.5% were male (n = 32) and 47.5% were female (n = 29). The mean age of thepatients was 43.15 ± 9.98 years. The mean protrusion distances of the operated and non-operated ears of the patients were 11.10 ± 3.17 and11.79 ± 1.99, respectively for the superior point, 15.02 ± 4.19 and 15.82 ± 2.62, respectively for the middle point, and 14.34 ± 4.71 and 15.38± 3.31 mm, respectively for the inferior point. The superior, middle and inferior protrusions of the operated and non-operated ears weresimilar (p > 0.05).Conclusion: Our findings demonstrated no difference between the patients" operated and non-operated ears in terms of auricleprotrusion. In future studies, further useful findings can be obtained by performing preoperative measurements and comparing them withpostoperative values.

Özet

Amaç: Bu çalışmada postauriküler kesi ile kulak cerrahisi yapılan hastaların kulak kepçesinin (üst, orta ve alt nokta olmak üzere üç farklı seviyede) aynı hastaların sağlıklı kulakları ile karşılaştırılıp anlamlı bir değişiklik gösterip göstermediğini belirlemeyi amaçladık. Yöntemler: Haziran 2019-Haziran 2020 tarihleri arasında Şanlıurfa Mehmet Akif İnan Eğitim ve Araştırma Hastanesi Kulak Burun Boğaz Kliniği'nde herhangi bir kulak cerrahisi için retroauriküler / postauriküler kesi yapılan tüm hastalar çalışmaya dahil edildi. Kulak kepçesi ile mastoid deri arasındaki en uzun mesafe üst, orta ve alt noktalardan milimetre olarak kaydedildi. Her üç ölçüm de ameliyat sonrası 3. ayda hem ameliyatlı hem de ameliyatsız kulakta yapıldı. Bulgular: Çalışmada değerlendirilen 61 hastanın %52,5'i erkek (n = 32) ve%47,5'i kadındı (n = 29). Hastaların ortalama yaşı 43,15 ± 9,98 yıldı. Hastaların ameliyatlı ve ameliyatsız kulaklarının ortalama mesafeleri şu şekildeydi: üst: 11,10 ± 3,17 / 11,79 ± 1,99, orta: 15,02 ± 4,19 / 15,82 ± 2,62, alt: 14,34 ± 4,71 / 15,38 ± 3,31 mm. Ameliyatlı ve ameliyatsız kulakların üst, orta ve alt kısımdaki ölçümleri benzerdi (p> 0.05). Sonuç: Bulgularımız, hastaların ameliyatlı ve ameliyatsız kulakları arasında kulak kepçesinin protrüzyonu açısından farklılık olmadığını göstermektedir. Gelecekteki çalışmalarda, preoperatif ölçümler yapmak ve bu sonuçları postoperatif değerlerle karşılaştırmak faydalı olabilir.
