    AbstractThe treatment of traumatic defects of the auricle concerning the exact reconstruction of details and aesthetic aspects is exacting for the surgeon. To face the expectations towards best trauma care, the different locations and extent of auricular injuries should be included in the different therapeutic strategies. The insufficient treatment results in mostly difficult secondary conditions. We present a classification for ear traumas, which considers size and location of defects. Depending on this, different techniques and methods of reconstruction are recommended. Advantages and disadvantages are pointed out and discussed with several examples and with the present literature.
