Keloids

This gentleman had a gauge earring that led to a deformity that ultimately led to a keloid. He had a very complicated surgery in which the keloid was entirely removed, which in turn left a large gauge deformity in his ear. He had a reconstruction of this using a rolled flap and then had subsequent radiation therapy to minimize recurrence. He is shown before and 8 months after surgery.
