[Partial anterior chondrotomy in the correction of prominent ears. Apropos of 140 re-examined cases].
336 patients have been operated for protruding ears. 140 of them have a long term postoperative follow-up. The anterior partial chondrotomies are opposed to the other surgical procedures and give the opportunity for a comparative and retrospective study. Surgical indications and procedures, use of antibiotics, postoperative follow-up, and complications are studied. 95% of results are good or very good whatever the surgical procedure. The authors remain the posterior and anterior access for partial chondrotomy.
