Ear Reconstruction Surgery Preparation

It is considered you are in surgery from the moment you arrive to the surgical area until you have sufficiently recovered from anesthesia. Before your surgery, your surgeon, anesthesiologist and the nursing staff will meet you in the pre-operative area to discuss your medical condition and answer your questions.



The anesthesia

What kind of anesthesia is used for ear reconstruction surgery?

Ear reconstruction surgery is performed under general anesthesia with intravenous induction and inhalation anesthesia. You will sleep through the entire operation, feeling no pain and remaining absolutely relaxed. The section about Anesthesia provides complete information on this medical practice along with recommendations and instructions.

Duration of the surgery

How long does ear reconstruction surgery take?

Surgery time for ear reconstruction may vary. Since in the first stage of the procedure, rib cartilage is taken from the chest, carved to resemble the shape of the ear, and placed in a pocket under the skin, time in the operating room may take 4-5 hours.

Hospitalization

Will I require hospitalization?



Ear reconstruction surgery involves a complex surgical procedure that demands medical observation. Since a piece of cartilage is removed from the child´s rib cage, patient is usually most comfortable spending one or two nights in the hospital following the surgery.

Therefore, your surgeon might recommend a stay at the surgical center to observe your recovery progress.



Preoperative preparation of patient


It is recommended to wear comfortable clothing. Be sure your shirt has buttons or zipper in front. You will not want to try to pull something over your head.
Wash your hair the day of the operation.
Girls should tie hair into a ponytail.
Boys should wear a short cut hair style.
Patient preparation includes treating the surgical site before surgery, using appropriate antiseptic agents for skin preparation.

In the operating room the intravenous therapy or IV will be initiated. The IV is the giving of liquid substances directly into a vein. Through a needle you will receive saline solution, anesthesia, and other medications you may need during surgery.
