We describe the use of the temporoparietal fascia flap in the reconstruction of a Mohs defect of the antihelix of the ear. |
A 29-year-old woman presented with an unusual lesion on the right auricular antihelix. |
Both auricles were prominent, with the superior crus of each ear extending at a right angle from the antihelix. |
Tubercles 4 through 6 arise from the second branchial arch and form the antihelix, antitragus, and lobule. |
Between the helix and the antihelix is the fossa of the helix. |
On the cranial surface of the pinna elevations correspond to the concha and to the fossae 792 of the helix and antihelix. |
