Prominent ear is not an uncommon deformity with 5% prevalence in population worldwide. Although there is no physiological handicap in this deformity, it affects the psychology and social integration, especially in children. Many surgical techniques are performed to correct this deformity. In this study, we illustrate a minimally invasive technique in cases of prominent ear and evaluate its efficacy.
