Tissue Engineered Elastic Cartilage-Mimetic Auricular Grafts for Ear Reconstruction

2025-10-28

Abstract excerpt

Patients born with microtia, the congenital malformation of the external ear, face substantial psychosocial strain. Current reconstruction relies on harvesting rib cartilage, an invasive procedure associated with donor site morbidity and unnaturally stiff ears due to the use of hyaline cartilage.
