The reconstruction of extended defects of the concha poses a complex challenge for plastic surgeons. In cases of subtotal ablation, an alternative method designed especially for elderly oncological patients consists of epithetic rehabilitation. However, inserting an implant-retained concha epithesis proves challenging in patients with antecedents of deep resections involving the mastoid process. In the present case study, we report on the long-term treatment course (2009-2017) of a 79-year-old male patient suffering from a recurrent basal cell carcinoma of the retroauricular region. Following tumor resection, along with lateral mastoidectomy, reconstruction, and adjuvant radiotherapy, functional and esthetic deficits primarily due to peripheral facial nerve palsy were successfully managed using a multistep procedure. The procedure was completed by inserting an implant-retained concha epithesis, resulting in improved quality of life. Due to prior lateral mastoidectomy, ultra-short implants (4 mm) were inserted, partially at atypical positions. For maintaining healthy periimplant soft tissue, aftercare comprised cold plasma treatment. This oncologic case demonstrates the therapeutic necessity of using a broad spectrum of reconstructive procedures, along with their limitations, in a critical anatomic region. Specific features include the presentation of a workflow using ultra-short implants in a compromised mastoid region. Surgeons should consider alternative implant positions in the event of any compromised mastoid process. A particular emphasis has been put on meticulous aftercare to preserve healthy periimplant soft tissues.
