RESUMEN
Auricular reconstruction in microtia patients is challenging, particularly in bilateral cases. The use of osseointegrated implants is a safe and effective way to retain the auricular prostheses. With the help of virtual planning we can produce more predictable results with better aesthetic outcomes. We present a case of an 8-year-old bilateral microtia patient who underwent auricular reconstruction with implant-retained prostheses, using virtual planning. Using stereolithographic models and surgical guides was also very helpful to achieve excellent results.
