Reconstruction of the complicated contours of the ear is a difficult task. To maintain and recreate the reconstructed contours of ears masked by the following various reasons is even more difficult. During the first stage of cartilage transplantation, the ear contours are quite often masked as a result of prolonged edema; thick, draping skin; organized hematoma; or inflammatory exudates. Dressings and splints have been reported as management methods of the ear postoperatively after the first stage of cartilage transplantation, but it is difficult to use these for a period of 6 months, the time when edema subsides. The author used triamcinolone acetonide injection locally in the area of the scapha and triangular fossa of the reconstructed ear to recreate the contours that were masked. This is a simple and effective method for achieving the desirable contours.
