Nonsurgical correction of congenital auricular deformities in the early neonate: a preliminary report

K Matsuo et al. Plast Reconstr Surg. 1984 Jan.

Abstract

We conclude that auricular deformities of the early neonate are corrigible by nonsurgical correction. Ideally, the correction should be started immediately after birth (realistically, at latest by the third day after birth) in order to obtain satisfactory and irreversible results.
