Usefulness of chondrocutaneous helix flap for defects smaller than 2 cm is widely accepted. This paper attempts to show the outcome of this technique for the management of a large helix and antihelix defect.

We performed the Antia-Buch technique, with two chondrocutaneous flaps, to reconstruct in a single surgical stage a 40 mm defect in the middle third of the auricle of an elderly patient who refused more than one surgical time, achieving an appropriate functional and cosmetical outcome.

Palabras clave : Ear auricle; Auricular reconstruction; Basal cell carcinoma; Auricular carcinoma.
