Congenital microtia has a considerable impact on the psychological development of the patient because the deformity is located in a distinct area and the auricular shape is out of whack. Surveys suggest that about 56.03% of patients first notice their auricular defects between the ages of 3 and 4 years. The rate of psychological disorders in patients with microtia has a significant tendency to increase with age. One can imagine adolescence, schooling, employment, and marriage, all of which can cause a huge psychological impact on the patient. Patients have pessimistic and melancholic psychological disorders, some have low self-esteem, withdrawal and self-containment, and some have aggressive, unfriendly and irritable psychological characteristics. Therefore, in order to prevent the development and aggravation of psychological problems in patients with microtia, external ear reconstruction surgery should be completed as early as possible provided that the conditions for surgery are met (age greater than 6 years old and subxiphoid chest circumference greater than 60 cm).
