The annual Brisbane Microtia & Atresia conference was once again an impressive event offering important information and support to Australian families. I’ve summarised a few of the common questions families asked me regarding having ear reconstruction in Australia if they choose to go down that path.
Last Monday another young Australian boy received a 3D printed ear implant. While this is the second for Australia, he also a “first” because he received a bone anchored hearing aid implant during the same operation. Usually done over 2 separate operations, this procedure is the first of its kind in Australia.
