Implant-Retained Auricular Prosthesis
Auricular defects may result from congenital malformations, injuries from motor vehicle crashes, trauma, or tumor resections. An auricular prosthesis was fabricated for a patient who had an injury from a motor vehicle crash. Extraoral implants and bar-and-clip retention for the proper connection of the auricular prosthesis to implant were used.

Surgical outcomes of testicular prostheses implantation in transgender men with a history of prosthesis extrusion or infection [PDF]
Background: Testicular prostheses implantation may be used for neoscrotal augmentation in transgender men. In current literature, explantation rates range from 0.6% to 30% and most are a result of infection or extrusion.
