Abstract
Primary excision of malignancies on the auricles with the standard "wedge technique" may produce lateral protrusion of the helix. A stellate-type excision eliminates the possibility of this undesirable effect and allows the surgeon to close large defects in the helix. The technique is described in detail.Entities:
