[Microtia in cases of oto-mandibular dysplasia]

The technique of reconstruction of a microtia, observed in cases of otomandibular dysplasia, does not differ in its principle from that of an isolated microtia. The technical approach depends primarily on the aspect of the auricular remnants whose forms are multiple and are in no way etiologically specific. However, when associated with other malformations of otomandibular dysplasia, the microtia presents some particularities and its correction must be integrated in the global treatment of hemifacial anomalies.
