Abstract
A new technique is introduced to reconstruct defects of the auricle [in three patients]. The neochondrogenic capacity in a free graft of the auricular perichondrium is used to build the cartilaginous framework in the missing part of the auricle. By using local flaps and skin grafts for coverage of the newly formed cartilage, the missing part of the auricle is satisfactorily reconstructed.
