Separating The Helix from The Antihelix Technique Versus Mustardé Technique in Prominent Ear Correction
Background: As many as 5% of the population has a prominent or bat-like ear malformation. Numerous methods of remedying the situation have been outlined. The fact that there is still research on it suggests that it is plentiful. The present techniques can be divided into two categories: those that preserve cartilage and those that split it. Objective: The aim of the current work was to demonstrate novel ideas in otoplasty that avoid dealing with the antihelix cartilage. Patients and methods: This Randomized central clinical trial was done at Plastic Surgery Unit, Zagazig University Hospital. 30 cases were included as a comprehensive sample performed prominent ear correction with Separating Helix from the Antihelix Technique andMustardé Technique during the period from June 2021 to December 2021. Complete clinical and physical examinations and Early and late post-operative complications recurrence were assessed. Results: There were non-statistically significant differences between the study groups regarding age, sex distribution, side of operation, operation time and follow up time. There was an increase in frequency of complication among Group I but without statistically significant difference. Conclusion: It could be concluded that separating the Helix from Antihelix Technique is a new technique that yields natural-looking outcomes, with helix appearing straight and appearing to extend beyond the antihelix on the frontal view. There are no visible scars, no recurrences, and a very minimal risk of complications.
