BACKGROUND: Ear keloids, often resulting from ear piercing or other traumas, significantly alter appearance, adversely impacting patients' quality of life and psychological well-being. Thus, developing an effective and esthetically pleasing surgical repair technique is crucial for enhancing patient quality of life.
METHODS: This study introduces a novel tripartite surgical approach, which includes arcuate incision design, blind dissection for scar flap, and centrifugal keloid core serial shave excision (ABC for short). This technique is particularly suited for keloids induced by ear piercing that are inoperable for direct suturing or where direct suturing significantly alters the ear contour.
RESULTS: In this study, 17 patients underwent the surgical treatment without observing special complications such as infection or necrosis. Long-term postoperative follow-up demonstrated good restoration of the ear contour, with only one case of recurrence. Patients expressed satisfaction with both the surgical process and outcomes.
CONCLUSIONS: The triple surgical technique (ABC surgery method) for treating auricular keloids has demonstrated excellent repair results, significantly improving auricle shape. Despite relying on the surgeon's experience, keloid characteristics, and patient comorbidities, it provides an effective treatment option. When combined with local radiotherapy, the recurrence rate is also significantly controlled.
