Burns Incl Therm Inj. 1983 Jan;9(3):218-21. doi: 10.1016/0305-4179(83)90042-6.
One hundred patients with burns of the ears were reviewed. Most had second-degree burns and did well. Loss of the external ear occurred in 15 patients, or 22 ears, due to the presence of very deep burn with full thickness injury. Chondritis developed in nine ears (5 per cent) with severe destruction of the ear in 8. Pseudomonas aeruginosa is an especially destructive organism to cartilage and was associated with all our cases of chondritis. Progression of deformity and development of infection can be minimized by avoidance of pressure, regular cleansing and application of topical antibiotics. Careful debridement and skin grafting of any third-degree burn areas are required and should be carried out as soon as possible.
对100例耳部烧伤患者进行了回顾性研究。大多数患者为二度烧伤，恢复情况良好。15例患者（共22只耳朵）出现外耳缺失，这是由于存在深度全层烧伤所致。9只耳朵（5%）发生了软骨炎，其中8只耳朵出现了严重的耳部破坏。铜绿假单胞菌是一种对软骨具有特别破坏性的微生物，与我们所有软骨炎病例都有关联。通过避免受压、定期清洁和局部应用抗生素，可将畸形进展和感染的发生降至最低。对于任何三度烧伤区域，都需要进行仔细的清创和植皮，并且应尽快实施。
