This 3D model illustrates an auricular burn at the third-degree (B) stage, signifying full-thickness tissue necrosis. The visualization demonstrates the total destruction of the epidermis, dermis, and skin appendages, often extending to the underlying ear cartilage. It highlights the characteristic necrotic scab (eschar), which may appear charred or waxy-white, and the complete loss of sensation. This serves as a vital clinical tool for studying severe thermal trauma, assessing the risk of suppurative perichondritis, and planning surgical debridement.
