Title: [Reconstruction and ear prosthesis: what are the indications?]. Author: Disant F. Journal: Rev Laryngol Otol Rhinol (Bord); 1997; 118(1):29-32. PubMed ID: 9206302. Abstract: There are two procedures available for treatment of the agenetic pinna: reconstructive plastic surgery using costal cartilage, and bone-anchored prostheses. Both techniques are described, and the indications clarified. It is important to emphasise that all of the possible alternatives must be within the repertoire of the surgeon, so that the treatment can be adapted to suit the individual case.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
