Chondrocutaneous Bilateral Advancement Flap with Postoperative Radiation Therapy for a Helical Rim Keloid

Abstract

Keloids can be recalcitrant, and a well-planned treatment strategy is essential. Multiple ear piercings have recently become popular, particularly among younger age groups. Management of keloids that develop after piercing of the ear cartilage may be particularly problematic. Helical rim keloids are difficult to excise because of the complex, three-dimensional, cartilaginous structure of the helix and its thin and tightly adherent covering layer of skin. The chondrocutaneous advancement flap introduced by Antia and Buch may be a useful reconstructive option for a helical rim keloid after marginal loss of a segment of the helix as a result of trauma, a burn, or excision of a malignant tumor. However, this technique is limited to wounds that involve only the helix. In this technical note, we describe the use of a chondrocutaneous bilateral advancement flap with postoperative radiation therapy to treat a more invasive and relatively large keloid on the scapha. This technique is straightforward and safe in terms of preserving the blood supply. The addition of adjuvant radiation therapy can help to decrease the risk of recurrence and preserve the morphological structure of the ear and patient satisfaction.
