Child and Caregiver Perspectives Towards Facial Appearance in Children With Microtia With or Without Craniofacial Microsomia Using a Newly Developed Likert Scale.

Craniofacial microsomia (CFM) is the second most common congenital craniofacial malformation characterized by asymmetric malformation of the ear and mandible. Numerous studies have reported the importance of child perspective and psychosocial issues in patients with craniofacial abnormalities. However, clinical tools to evaluate child and caregiver perspectives in patients with microtia with or without CFM have been limited or not reported in the literature.
