CONT

Quand la microtie atteint les deux côtés, le développement de la parole et l’apprentissage de la langue peuvent être affectés. Si votre enfant souffre d’une microtie bilatérale avec perte d’audition des deux côtés, il est important d’améliorer son audition, avec une prothèse auditive à conduction osseuse, le plus tôt possible.
