CRABP2 upregulation in perichondral stem cells is associated with microtia [PDF]
BMC Medical GenomicsMicrotia is a common congenital craniofacial malformation characterized by the partial or complete absence of the external ear structure. Despite its relatively high incidence, the pathogenesis of microtia remain poorly understood.

Rehabilitation of Unilateral Congenital Microtia by Implant-retained Prosthesis.
Ann Maxillofac Surg, 2017 Microtia is a major congenital anomaly of the external ear. It includes a spectrum of deformities from a grossly normal but small ear to the absence of the entire external ear. These deformities account for three in every 10,000 births, with bilaterally missing ears seen in fewer than 10% of all cases. Extraoral implant-retained ear prosthesis has been

Single-Cell RNA sequencing reveals mitochondrial dysfunction in microtia chondrocytes
Scientific ReportsMicrotia is a congenital malformation characterized by underdevelopment of the external ear. While chondrocyte dysfunction has been implicated in microtia, the specific cellular abnormalities remain poorly understood.
