Ear Correction

The first step of the surgery is giving general anesthesia. After that, incisions will be made on the back of the ear. Sometimes, incisions may have to be created in front of the ear. Through the incisions, the surgeon will correct the protruding or mis shaped cartilages. After the procedure, the incisions will be closed with external stitches.

CORRECTION OF BAT EAR

Bat ear is a condition that occurs at childbirth. The problem is normally caused due to the irregularity in the soft tissues folding during ear formation.

Treatment: Local anesthesia may be sufficient in most cases. The procedure begins by making an incision in the back of the ear. Surgical procedures are performed to fold back the soft tissues so that the ear is now in the required shape. Only minimum invasion is required and this scar fades away in a short time.

Microtia ear reconstruction

Microtia is a congenital deformity of the outer ear. In this condition the ear of the foetusdoes not fully develop during the first trimester of pregnancy. The word "microtia" is synonymous with "little ear", from the Latin words "micro" and "otia." The outer ear is called pinna. When this very part of the ear ends up being underdeveloped then this condition is referred to as anotia.

Diagnosis of Microtia

If a child is born with microtia, then this should be followed by an early evaluation of the ear's organ systems and the child's hearing. The first consultation with physicians should be shortly after birth. This gives parents proper insight into their child's condition and the treatment prospects.
