title: [Conservative otoplastic modelling: early operative indication].
abstract: The authors presents their philosophy and their experience in the field of otoplasty in young children. The modelling and conservative characteristic of the surgical procedure, used for over 6 years, allows surgery on children as young as 3 years old. They detail the different operative steps underlining the rarity of the complications, the natural results achieved and the stability of these results with the child growth.
