Figure 7: a: Postoperative view after the re-entry operation. The residual concha was resected, with the stenosis of the external porus acusticus additionally corrected by a rotation flap and full-thickness skin graft (concha). b: Lateral view of the auricular region before referral to the anaplastologist. As can be seen, the stenosis has been managed successfully, the magnetic abutments have been inserted, with the soft tissue conditioning completed following repeated removal of incrustations.
c: Lateral view after precise wax modelation was completed. The actual implant positions are considered totally satisfactory. d: Lateral view of the completed implant-retained concha epithesis.
