Reconstruction of the external ear using implant-supported alloplasts—Our experience
Surgical reconstruction of the missing external ear is difficult, and the results are often far from satisfactory. An implant-retained auricular prosthesis is a suitable alternative. Microtia, malformation, deformity, and partial or complete loss of the external ear may be due to various congenital or acquired factors. A case series of three patients treated with implant-retained auricular prostheses is presented in this article. For each missing pinna, two titanium implants were placed in the temporal bone. After 6 months of osseointegration, the implants were loaded. All three cases were rehabilitated with a bar and clip retained prosthesis. There were two male and one female patient with an average age of 16.6 years. One patient had unilateral absence of external ear and two had bilateral absence. A total of 10 implants were placed, 4 on the right side and 6 on the left. The average post rehabilitation follow-up was 18 months. Peri-implant tissue reactions were observed at two sites. The implant-retained auricular prosthesis is an alternative treatment approach with good retention and patient satisfaction. Long-term follow-up is required to assess delayed sequelae.
