ABSTRACT
This paper presents the corrective surgical methods of lop ear deformities based on the degree of helical constriction. The deformities were corrected by antihelical tubing procedure and/or cartilage graft. The additional skin coverage, if required, was obtained by postauricular V-Y advancement flap or Grotting flap. Total 22 lop ear deformities were corrected including nine tubing procedures, three cartilage grafts and ten cartilage grafts combined with tubing procedure. All patients were followed up more than one year and most of them maintained natural auricular appearances.
