Discussion

Evaluation of preauricular rotation flaps repairs cartilage exposure in the triangular fossa, suggesting high success and patient satisfaction.

Preauricular rotation flaps effectively repair cartilage exposure in the triangular fossa area after ear reconstruction, enhancing patient satisfaction.
Flap survival was achieved in 91.7% of cases, with a notable restoration of triangular fossa morphology assessed over an 18.5-month follow-up.
Assessments included flap survival, morphology restoration, and patient satisfaction scores, with an average score of 4.3 out of 5.
The technique demonstrates minimal donor site scarring and shows promise for a straightforward learning curve for surgeons.

Feng et al. (2025) studied this question.
