El pabellon auricular por su situación anatómica se encuentra susceptible a una serie de lesiones traumáticas y/o patológicas, por lo que su reconstrucción es un verdadero desafío para el área quirúrgica encargada de mantener la simetría con el pabellon contralateral como su compleja estructura. Presentamos el caso clínico de un paciente con pérdida del borde helical, posterior a mordedura humana, reconstrucción del daño mediante colgajo retroauricular, una técnica versátil, sencilla que requiere siempre cumplir con todos los requisitos de orden técnico-quirúrgicos de tratamiento de movilización de colgajos.
ABSTRACT
The earlobe, due to its exposed situation, is susceptible to a variety of traumatic and/or pathologic lesions, therefore its reconstruction is a real challenge for surgery in order to maintain symmetry with the earlobe on the opposite side as its complex structure. Therefore we present the case of a patient with loss of the posterior helical border after a human bite. The damage was cured by retroauricular skin graft, a versatile, simple technique which requires always the fulfilment of all surgical technical requirements of treatment by movilization of skin grafts.
