Otoplasty is ear surgery which aims to pin back ears. Prominauris is the latin term for ears that stick out to much. Repair of this is also called ear pinning. The ears are not really pinned back though. This patient underwent otoplasty as an adult to bring his ears back. This is done with suture technique and can even be done under local anesthesia.
