Microtia is an uncommon congenital deformity of the ear with absence of some or all parts of the ear and frequently involves absence of an ear canal (atresia) . In most patients with this condition the inner ear is normal but there is a conductive hearing loss where there is reduced transmission of sound to the inner ear because the passage for sound is narrow or absent ( ear canal /middle ear atresia.
Microtia reconstruction is regarded as the most challenging reconstructive problem in plastic surgery and there are only a handful of experts internationally who can achieve good result with this problem so it is important that patients with this problem seek help from a recognised expert in this field.
