• Basal cell carcinoma (BCC) is the most common neoplasia in Caucasians with a pre-dominance for the sun-exposed anatomical areas including the auricle. The treatment of choice is surgery achieving an R0-resection status. On the other hand, functional and aesthetic results are of importance. We report a case of 79-year-old Caucasian man with a BCC of the helical rim that was treated surgically using a modified Antia-Buch flap for single stage reconstruction. Article is discussing peculiarities of BCC on the auricle and options for auricular reconstruction.
