One Stage Microtia Reconstruction (Rib Graft): Case 4

Description

This 6 year-old girl was born with grade 3 microtia and complete aural atresia. Neither she or her mother were aware that her condition could be repaired until she was referred to our office by the boy shown above as case 3. Her right ear was reconstructed in a single stage utilizing a rib cartilage graft framework. The photos on the right were taken 1 year after her surgery. CLICK PHOTO TO ENLARGE
