ABSTRACT
The distinct genetic syndromes and congenital malformations present a wide variety of alterations, most frequently of the craniofacial type, and among these, the ear is no exempt to the latter. In Hospital Juárez, as a reference hospital and a center with a predominance of otologic pathology, we have a great number of cases, and a lot of these are treated at the Otolaryngology an Head and Neck Surgery and audiology department. We decided to do a thorough analysis of the most frequent pathologies at our center, their treatment and evolution. We did an analytic, non-invasive, case review study.
