Description

We applied ventilation T-tubes for the treatment of perichondritis of the auricle. T-tube (designed by Goode for the treatment of eustachian tube insufficiency) was inserted under the perichondrium, and allowed for drainage of the pus and the exudate under the perichondrium. T-tube has little tissue irritation, and causes no deformity of the auricle. We treated five cases of perichondritis of the auricle by this method and all cases healed successfully.
