ABSTRACT

Stenosis of the external auditory canal is troublesome to many otologic surgeons. There are many reports on the reconstruction of the external auditory canal for the stenotic external auditory canal including variously complex flaps and grafts, but still repeated stenosis remains the problem of drainage, ventilation and excessive crusting.

We report three cases of meatoplasty with the use of superiorly based conchal transposition flap in combination with an endaural approach comparing preoperative photographs with postoperative photographs.

Keywords: Meatoplasty; Conchal transposition flap
