Higher incidence of hematuria was observed in female children with microtia

Scientific Reports, 2023
The goals of this study were to investigate the incidence and characteristics of hematuria in patients with microtia, and to clarify that more attention should be paid to renal dysfunction in patients with microtia.

Understanding the molecular mechanisms of human microtia via a pig model of HOXA1 syndrome

Disease Models & Mechanisms, 2015
Microtia is a congenital malformation of the outer ears. Although both genetic and environmental components have been implicated in microtia, the genetic causes of this innate disorder are poorly understood.

Genome-wide linkage study suggests a susceptibility locus for isolated bilateral microtia on 4p15.32-4p16.2.

PLoS ONE, 2014
Microtia is a congenital deformity where the external ear is underdeveloped. Genetic investigations have identified many susceptibility genes of microtia-related syndromes.

Objective quantitative methods to evaluate microtia reconstruction: A scoping review

JPRAS Open, 2023
Summary: Background: Commonly used methods to evaluate auricles are subjective and are therefore not specific, comprehensive, and precise nor effective in the assessment of microtia reconstruction outcomes.

Whole‐exome sequencing analysis in 10 families of sporadic microtia with thoracic deformities

Molecular Genetics & Genomic Medicine, 2021
Background Microtia is a congenital malformation of the external ear and may occur as an isolated deformity or as part of a syndrome. Our previous study found a high correlation between microtia and thoracic deformities, thus, we propose that external ...

An analytical study of neocartilage from microtia and otoplasty surgical remnants: A possible application for BMP7 in microtia development and regeneration.

PLoS ONE, 2020
To investigate auricular reconstruction by tissue engineering means, this study compared cartilage regenerated from human chondrocytes obtained from either microtia or normal (conchal) tissues discarded from otoplasties.

Mikrotia

Saintika Medika, 2017
Microtia is an incompletely formed ear. The term “micro” means small and “otia” means ear. Hence, when translated literally, “microtia” means small ear. At times a bump of tissue is present in the location where an ear would normally be found.
