What are the chances of me passing microtia since i got it, to my children?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Hard to determine: As always, it depends. If you have isolated microtia the chances are low, but it may be higher if you have associated manifestations. A visit with a genetic counselor may be beneficial.
