This 3D model illustrates an auricular keloid, a benign fibroproliferative tumor resulting from abnormal wound healing, most commonly following ear piercing or localized trauma. The visualization highlights the firm, raised, and often nodular scar tissue that characteristically extends beyond the margins of the original wound. By demonstrating these specific structural changes to the auricle, the model provides an essential anatomical reference for understanding pathological scarring and planning complex surgical excisions or corticosteroid therapies.
