Abstract

The aim of this case presentation is to report microtia and anotia in a 3‑year‑old female dog. Owner complained about hearing loss and absence of auricles. There were no auricles in both control ears in clinical examination. Degree of the hearing problem was nearly deafness. A fistula was determined in left lateral cranial side. Grade III microtia and grade IV anotia were diagnosed in the ear canal of the left and right sides, respectively. Under general anesthesia, the dog underwent auricular reconstructive surgery for microtia on the left side. Two weeks after operation, the owner evaluated the patient’s hearing as moderate. This finding was clinically confirmed through performance of the Pyror’s reflex. In conclusion, grade III microtia can be treated surgically to improve the conductive hearing of the patient.

Özet

Bu olgu sunumunun amacı 3 yaşındaki dişi bir köpekteki mikrotia ve anotiayı rapor etmektir. Hasta sahibinin şikayeti işitme kaybı ve kulakların olmamasıydı. Klinik muayenede kontrol edilen her iki kulakta, kulak kepçeleri yoktu. İşitme problem derecesi sağırlığa yakındı. Sol tarafta fistül belirlendi. Kulak kanalında III. derece mikrotia ve IV. derece anotia sol ve sağ tarafta belirtilen sıra ile belirlendi. Hastada genel anestezi ile sol aurikulada rekonstruktif cerrahi planlandı. Operasyondan 2 hafta sonra hasta sahibi işitme düzeyinin orta seviye olduğunu değerlendirdi. Bu bulgu, klinik olarak yapılan Pyror’s testi ile teyit edildi. Sonuç olarak, III. derece mikrotia hastada işitme kaybını iyileştirmek için cerrahi olarak düzeltilebilir
