- Abstract
In this article, the authors focus on a classification scheme for acquired traumatic earlobe defects not related to jewellery and suggest an algorithm for treating the defect. They inform that there are three types of defects including Type I characterised by split ear lobule, Type II A characterised by loss of the ear lobe and Type II B characterised by a piece of ear remnant attached to cheek. They mention that the use of an algorithmic approach helps in the operative planning.
