Abstract
External ear defects are common and occur in roughly 5% of the total population. The common congenital ear deformities were anotia, microtia, crytotia, hypoplasia, constricted ear/cup ear/ lop ear, prominent ear, stahl ear deformity. This manuscript shows methods to evaluate a case of congenital ear deformity.
