Abstract

Amaç: Kulak, fonksiyonel ve estetik olarak insan yüzünün son derece önemli bir bileşenidir. Son yıllarda yapılan çalışmalar dış kulağın morfolojik özelliklerinin cinsiyete ve etnik gruba göre makul farklılıklar gösterdiğini raporlamıştır. Bu çalışmalardan elde edilen veriler plastik cerrahlar için yönlendiricidir.
Yöntemler: Çalışmamız Türk popülasyonu üzerinde gerçekleştirilmiştir. 18-25 yaşları arasında 191 sağlıklı yetişkin gönüllünün (106 kadın, 85 erkek) kulak ekseni, antiheliks açısı, kulak uzunluğu, kulak genişliği, kulak memesi uzunluğu ve kulak memesi genişliği ölçümleri yapılmıştır. Tüm parametreler cinsiyetler arasında karşılaştırılmıştır ve hepsi için korelasyon analizi yapılmıştır.
Bulgular: Anti heliks açısı dışında tüm değerler erkeklerde kadınlara göre daha büyük bulundu (P=0,0486; P<0,001; P=0,004; P<0,001; P=0,038 sırasıyla kulak ekseni, uzunluğu, genişliği, kulak memesi uzunluğu ve genişliği için). Kulak ekseni, antiheliks açısı, kulak genişliği ve kulak memesi genişliği ile pozitif korelasyon gösterdi ve kulak uzunluğu, kulak genişliği ve kulak memesi uzunluğu ile pozitif korelasyon gösterdi (her ikisi için P<0,001).
Sonuç: Çalışmamızın bazı sınırlılıkları olmakla birlikte, kulak cerrahisinde standardizasyon ve optimizasyon için faydalı olacağına inandığımız genç erişkin Türk popülasyonunun dış kulak ölçüm değerleri hakkında dikkate değer veriler içermektedir.

Assessment of ear metric properties in young Turkish adults

Abstract

Aim: The ear is a critical component of the human face functionally and aesthetically. Studies in recent years have reported that the morphological properties of the outer ear show substantial differences based on sex and ethnic group. The data obtained in these studies are guiding for plastic surgeons.
Methods: This cross-sectional study was carried out on a Turkish population. Ear axis, antihelix angle, ear length, ear width, earlobe length and earlobe width measurements were made on 191 healthy adult volunteers (106 women, 85 men) between the ages of 18-25 years. Ear metric values mentioned above were compared between the genders, and correlation analysis was conducted for all.
Results: All values except the antihelix angle were larger in males (P=0.0486; P<0.001; P=0.004; P<0.001; P=0.038 for ear axis, length, width, ear lobule length and width respectively). The ear axis was positively correlated with the antihelix angle, the ear width and the ear lobule width and the ear length was positively correlated with the ear width and ear lobule length (P<0.001 for both).
Conclusion: Although our study has some limitations it includes noteworthy data about outer ear metric values of the young adult Turkish population which we believe is going to be beneficial to standardization and optimization in ear surgery.
