The topics covered were very comprehensive.  Families learnt about Audiology, Listening & Language, Auditory Development, Baha, Vibrant Soundbridge, Atresia Repair, Rib Graft Reconstruction, Medpor Reconstruction, Combined Atresia Repair & Medpor Procedure, and the Hear & Say Microtia & Atresia Program.  Saturday was a full day of presentations and information.

It was great to see the children meeting other children over the weekend as well.  Families got to meet talk to other families with children with Microtia & Atresia – for some this was the first time they had ever seen another child with Microita & Atresia.

Parents certainly were treated to some top quality presentations and received some very up to date information.

Welcome to the updated Microtia Australia Website.  We have updated many pages, added more information, new pages,and LOTS of photos of gorgeous kids with microtia & atresia. 

There is a whole new section about atresia and hearing loss.  Here you will find lots of general information about hearing loss as well as plenty of information about the treatment options and alternatives available to atresia patients.

Have a look around – we hope you find the information you are seeking and comfort in knowing there are other families out there facing similar challenges.  You may even see some faces you know :-)
