A patient K/C/O Goldenhar syndrome came for right external ear reconstruction. Patient had typical features of the syndrome with hypoplastic mandible and maxillae, malocclusion of teeth ,malaligned teeth ,retrognathia and hypoplastic hyoid bone . Anticipating a difcult intubation it was decided to go ahead with awake intubation in this patient . Blind nasal intubation was planned because of unavailability of breoptic in our institution and it was achieved with 7 mm ivory white north pole tube with dexmedetomidine infusion at rate of 0.5mcg/kg/hr and topical anaesthesia .

Microtia may occur as an isolated finding or in conjunction with other associated anomalies or a genetic syndrome. Ear reconstruction for these patients is typically performed no earlier than 6 years of age. In this chapter, a staged autogenous method of ear reconstruction is described using costal cartilage. In the first stage, a costal cartilage graft is harvested and placed. The next stages involve lobule transposition, detachment of the auricle with placement of a posterior skin graft, and further refinement of the external ear landmarks with tragus creation and definition of the conchal bowl and ear canal.

Objectives: Ear deformity caused by burns is one of the most difficult types of deformity to treat with plastic surgery, and the reconstruction of burned ears undoubtedly remains a substantial challenge. This study aims to report the therapeutic regime of using a superficial temporal fascial flap to cover the framework in burned ear reconstruction. Methods: Autologous costal cartilage was used to form the ear framework in all of the reconstruction cases. A superficial temporal fascial flap was used as soft tissue to cover the ear scaffold. Results: Five patients with 6 ears were included in our study. The external ear healed well and the location, size, and shape of both ears were generally symmetrical. No complication was observed in any of the patients. Conclusions: The superficial temporal fascial flap is a good choice for covering the autogenous cartilage framework when treating ear deformities after burns.
