title: [Ear prosthesis anchored on osseointegrated implants. Experience with 9 cases].
abstract: The use of osseointegrated titanium implants has improved the quality of auricle prosthesis fixation. Between december 1993 and july 1994, twenty two titanium fixtures have been surgically implanted in nine patients in the Ear Nose Throat department of the university hospital of Strasbourg. This method of auricle amputation repair achieves a good esthetic result with a low rate of postoperative complications.
