Inheritance of microtia and aural atresia in a family with five affected members. 1979

M Zankl, and K D Zang

Only a few reports of congenital meatal atresia and microtia have been published. Dominant as well as recessive inheritance has been suggested. We report a family with five affected members in two generations. An irregularly dominant transmission seems to be the most likely explanation.
