Microtia is a deformity of the outer ear that occurs during the first trimester of pregnancy. It is a condition where the ear does not develop fully. Microtia occurs in about 1 in 5,000 births. In 90% of cases, it affects only one ear (usually the right one). The condition is more common in males than in females.
