BACKGROUND: Mohs micrographic surgery has been considered the gold standard for treating nonmelanoma skin cancers. Approximately 8% to 10% of skin cancers requiring Mohs surgery occur on the auricle. Skin grafts can be used to achieve optimal functional and cosmetic results.
OBJECTIVES: To describe a skin graft technique using the mastoid area as a donor site for auricular reconstruction following Mohs micrographic surgery, to achieve optimal esthetic results in functionally important areas.
METHODS: This retrospective study assessed the outcomes of patients who underwent MMS in an out-patient Mohs surgery clinic from 2010 to 2021. All patients had MMS of the auricle with reconstruction using a split thickness skin graft harvested from the mastoid area.
RESULTS: A total of 154 patients were included. The average lesion diameter was 13.7 mm (range 5-30 mm), excised in an average of 1.9 rounds of MMS. Skin graft success rate was 96%. Complications included one patient with a hypertrophic scar. The cosmetic appearance of the recipient site was rated as excellent by 87.5% of patients. All patients rated the cosmetic appearance of the donor area as excellent and well-concealed.
CONCLUSIONS: Split thickness skin grafts harvested from the mastoid area are a quick and efficient reconstruction method for post-Mohs auricular defects.
