Congenital ear anomalies are defined as either malformations (microtia) or deformations. About one-third of these could self-correct,leaving a large need for acceptable corrective methods.Some reports have shown that molding the deformed ear,especially if started within the first 7 days of birth,can lead to satisfactory results and obviate the need for surgical repair and the complications of surgical intervention.Combined the newborn hearing screening and these deformities picking up can be effective in finding out the newborn infants who need the molding therapy within the first 3 days of birth.In brief,early recognition and non-surgical correction are a cost-effective,mini-malist and safety method to manage newborn infants with deformational auricular anomalies and worth of spreading.%先天性耳畸形可分为耳畸形(小耳畸形)和耳廓变形.大约有1/3左右的耳廓变形患儿会自行改善,但仍有相当多的患儿需要矫治.许多研究表明出生7天之内进行耳廓畸形耳矫形器矫治,可以获得满意的效果,同时能够避免手术及可能的并发症风险.新生儿听力筛查联合耳廓畸形筛查可以在出生3天内鉴别出需要进行矫形干预的患儿.新生儿耳廓畸形的早期认识和无创矫治是一项经济、简便、安全的治疗方法,值得推广应用.
