[Optimal result after ear reconstruction following a dog bite injury].
A case of a young woman is reported who lost a big part of the right auricle by a dog bite. An aesthetically satisfying immediate reconstruction after refixation of the deep-ithelialised amputated helical rim could be achieved with the aid of a temporal fascial island flap and full thickness skin grafts.
