Training model for the auricular reconstruction acc. to Magritz

MEDICON has developed this special training model for the auricular reconstruction in co-operation with Dr. Ralph Magritz (Clinic for ENT-, Head-, Neck-Surgery Prosper-Hospital, Recklinghausen, Germany).

The plastic-surgical reconstruction of heavy dysplastic auricles, nonexisting auricles or auricles lost by an accident or a tumor operation, is nowadays mainly done by using rib cartilage.

The outcome of a successful ear reconstruction depends essentially on the creation of a firm and natural looking auricle skeleton made out of rib cartilage.

Among a high degree of plastic-surgical expert knowledge a distinctive aesthetic sensation and a certain creative and artistic ability is required. 

The training model according to Magritz offers specific and realistic preparation of the auricular skeleton as well as the preparation and composition of each part: Basis, Helix, Anthelix and Tragus respectively Tragus-Antitragus-complex.

The training model according to Magritz is based on the use and treatment of a special silicone, which is similar to rib cartilage in its consistency and elasticity. The model is emulating the skeletal conditions and dimensions of the lower thorax aperture of a young adult, consisting of the cartilaginous parts of the ribs 7 to 9.
