History of Auricular Reconstruction (耳介再建の歴史)
Ever since Tanzer introduced auricular reconstruction utilizing the autogenous costal cartilages, numerous methods have been published. The methods varies in the number of stages involved and the morphological features reconstructed: Tanzer Method involves six (6) stages, Brent’s Method with four (4) stages and the Nagata Method with two (2) stages. As for the Tanzer’s and Brent’s Methods, the detailed morphological features were insufficient and the reconstructed auricle was not projected as published by Tolleth in his article. Therefore, I sought to solve these problems to reconstruct an auricle with detailed morphological features and a properly projected reconstructed auricle. I was able to develop the two (2) stage total auricular reconstruction method and performed the first surgical case with this method in 1985. As of date, I have performed over one thousand(1000)auricular reconstruction cases with the two (2) stage method.
Introduction
Total auricular reconstruction involves two stages with the first stage being the fabrication of the three-dimensional costal cartilage framework (3-D frame) and the grafting of the fabricated 3-D frame. The second stage is the projection of the reconstructed auricle.
Primary Auricular Reconstruction (耳介再建術)Primary auricular reconstructions are cases in which the patients undergo auricular reconstruction for the first time. The age of surgery is set at ten years of age and must fulfill the criterion of chest circumference of at least 60 centimeters (ample costal cartilage volume, confirmation with X-ray).

Case 7 Right Clinical Anotia Case Further Complicated with Extremely Severe Low Hairline

(a)
(b)
(c)
(a)
The pre-operative
appearance of a clinical anotia case complicated with extremely severe low
hairline. Anotia is an extremely complicated auricular reconstruction alone due
to extreme insufficiency of skin surface area to reconstruct the auricle and
this case is further complicated with a n extremely severe low
hairline.
(b) The infra-operative
appearance during the first stage operation revealing that more than half of the
surgical site is covered by hair bearing skin.
(c) The post-operative
appearance, note that there is absolutely no hair growth in the reconstructed
auricle and that auricular reconstruction even for clinical anotia cases and
those further complicated with low hairline can be reconstructed.
Secondary Auricular Reconstruction (耳介再々建術)
Secondary auricular reconstructions
are cases in which the patients request auricular reconstruction for the second
time due to unfavorable primary auricular reconstruction results. The number of
secondary auricular reconstruction has been increasing in the past
decade.
Secondary Auricular reconstruction for unfavorable results has been
and is considered as one of the most difficult reconstructive surgeries to
perform. The main reason being insufficient skin surface area due to scarring
from the primary surgery and may be further complicated with a severed
superficial temporal artery. But with careful preoperative planning, secondary
auricular reconstruction can be performed with favorable results.
Case 8 Unfavorable primary reconstruction results performed with the modified Tanzer method at a different institution for a lobule type microtia

(a) (b)

(c) (d)
(e)
(a) (b) The pre-operative close-up appearance revealing the unfavoralable color match of the grafted skin in
the conchal cavity, resorption of the cartilage framework in the upper region of the reconstructed auricle and absence of hair growth (alopecia) in the adjacent
area behind the reconstructed auricle where skin was also grafted.
(c) (d) (e) The post-operative results of secondary auricular reconstruction performed at our institution. Note
that the morphological features of the reconstructed auricle have been attained.
The post-operative angle view after the second stage operation, note that the reconstructed auricle is well maintained and project, also the absence of hair
growth behind the reconstructed auricle has been solved.
The post-operative close-up appearance of the same patient revealing that the morphological features of the auricle have been reconstructed and the results
appear as if there exists a external auditory canal behing the reconstructed tragus.

(c)
(d)
(a)
(b) Pre-operative
Appearance
This is a hemifacial microsomia case
where the patient sought for secondary auricular reconstruction for an
unfavorable result of a primary total auricular reconstruction performed at a
different institution
Infra-operative appearance revealing the surgical
outline for the first stage operation, note that the reconstructed auricle from
the primary auricular reconstruction is not located in the proper anatomical
location, there is a mismatch in color of the grafted skin in the conchal cavity
and that this case is further complicated with low hairline penetrating into the
upper region of the auricle to be reconstructed.
(c) (d) Post-operative
Appearance
The post-operative results reveal that
the morphological features of the auricle have been reconstructed.
The
reconstructed auricle is located in the proper anatomical location, properly
projected and even the pseudo-auditory meatus (opening of the external ear
canal) is reconstructed.

microsomia case where the patient underwent primary total auricular
reconstruction surgeries at a different institution.
Infra-operative
appearance revealing the surgical outline for the first stage operation, note
that the reconstructed auricle from the primary auricular reconstruction is not
located in the proper anatomical location, the presence of abundant scar, mid
face and that this case is further complicated with low hairline penetrating
into the upper region of the auricle to be reconstructed.
