  • This is actually a medical term. If you search on the term, for images, you will get the idea. NOT for the faint-hearted.

    A medical dictionary I looked up said: 'Fusion or abnormal approximation of the lobules (lobes) of the auricles of the external ears in otocephaly.'

    otocephaly is another $100 word you'll need to look up.
