Article Synopsis
- Polyotia, also known as mirror ear or accessory ear, is a rare external ear anomaly where an extra auricle closely resembles a real ear rather than just a small skin tag, with less than 30 cases reported so far.
- Two cases of polyotia were successfully treated at Dhulikhel Hospital, involving an 8-year-old and a 14-year-old boy, each with a large accessory auricle on different sides, that mirrored the main auricle.
- The surgical correction involved carefully removing the extra cartilage and skin, reshaping it to fill gaps, and reconstructing the tragus using a graft.
