What's the difference between antihelix and external?
Antihelix
Definition:
(n.) The curved elevation of the cartilage of the ear, within or in front of the helix. See Ear.
Example Sentences:

(17) It is seen less commonly in women and younger individuals, where the anatomic locations may vary to include the antihelix, antitragus, and other areas on the external ear.
(18) In such instances, the thickness of the graft must be considered, ranging from an almost translucent quality for the antihelix to that of a much thicker graft for the helix.
(19) Mustarde's technique and the various anterior scoring methods do not deal with the conchal component of the protruded ear, nor do they give a fully satisfactory formation of the antihelix when one of these methods is used alone.
(20) The antihelix is shaped by two dermosubcutaneous perichondrial flaps; the conchal spring is eased by means of a wedge-shaped cartilage excision in the area of the isthmus of the cartilage or the auricle, while residual protrusion of the lobule is corrected by a Z-plasty.

(a.) Away from the mesial plane of the body; lateral.
(n.) Something external or without; outward part; that which makes a show, rather than that which is intrinsic; visible form; -- usually in the plural.
