Popis: The Baha® Attract system can provide effective and stable hearing amplification for patients with microtia. Concurrent surgeries of auricle reconstruction and Baha® Attract implantation do not result in more soft tissue complications. The number of adverse events increased with the duration of implantation, even one year postoperatively. Benign skin evolutions, including skin thinning and erythema at the implant side, are commonly seen in Baha® Attract users. Implants are not necessarily removed when skin necrosis occurs in Baha® Attract users.
