Article Synopsis
  • The study investigates the chorda tympani nerve (CTN) during atresiaplasty for congenital aural atresia (CAA) to assess its location and preservation potential.
  • Six patients were studied, revealing that the CTN was consistently located in the atretic plate and could be preserved in some cases with favorable conditions.
