title: [Indications for extra-oral implants: strategic methods apropos of a clinical case].
abstract: We report the case of a 73-year-old man with an extensive tumor of the external ear, describing the criteria that led us to use an extra-oral implant and not reconstructive surgery. Each criteria was evaluated comparatively to another option and also on the prosthesis level.
