In order not to affect the child's physical and mental health, the operation should be completed before school age. Generally, the best operative age is from 6 years old to before puberty (about 14 years old). Too young, because of its small development of autogenous costal cartilage and limited materials, and because of growth and development changes, it may lead to morphological changes and thoracic deformity of reconstructed ears; However, don't wait until you are old to have surgery. With the increase of age, the texture of costal cartilage will also change, which will have a certain impact on the carving and later morphological maintenance of external ear reconstruction scaffold.

Simple auricle reconstruction requires two operations. For the first time, it was taken from the costal cartilage of the body, carved on the auricle bracket and implanted into the ear to form an ear lying behind the ear. Just keep your ears open after 3-6 months. It can be refined and decorated according to the situation in the future. If the auditory nerve is normal, it is feasible to reconstruct auricle and hearing at the same time. The sixth, seventh and eighth costal cartilage of the patient was taken in the first stage of operation. According to the shape of the other healthy ear, the cartilage was carved into an auricle bracket and buried under the skin behind the ear, and the hearing was reconstructed at the same time. External auditory canal prefabrication technique was used during the operation. After a few months, the auricle was erected and the external auditory canal was opened.

You can take your child to the hospital for a comprehensive evaluation to see if you are doing preschool surgery.
