Children
and adults with congenital auricular atresia,
or microtia, are cared for here by
the Microtia Service, comprised of a team
of surgeons from the disciplines of facial
plastic and reconstructive surgery and Maxillofacial
Surgery, and Otology. All clinical, radiological,
surgical and post-operative care for these
patients is provided here. This multidisciplinary
approach helps to treat the patient not
only to retain hearing but to rule out any
associated anomaly if present, to suggest
a definitive plan for the future.
