Abstract
Many surgical methods have been reported for the reconstruction of cryptotia. We have devised a new modified method for surgical correction of cryptotia that uses a skin graft from the retroauricular region, and have treated 15 ears of 14 patients using this method. The method is described and cases are illustrated.
