Pliegues en el lóbulo de la oreja - Treatment

Se debe llamar al médico si:

Este hallazgo generalmente se hace en el examen del bebé sano. Acuda al pediatra si nota que su hijo presenta pliegues en el lóbulo de la oreja y le preocupa que esto pueda tener relación con un trastorno hereditario.

Lo que se puede esperar en el consultorio médico:

El médico elaborará la historia clínica del niño. Algunas de las preguntas de la historia clínica pueden ser:

  • ¿Cuándo notó por primera vez los pliegues en el lóbulo de la oreja?
  • ¿Qué otros síntomas o anomalías ha observado?

Se practica un examen físico para determinar si existen anomalías que puedan indicar la presencia de un trastorno poco común.

Se pueden practicar exámenes diagnósticos si se detectan otros síntomas o anomalías. El examen específico por realizar dependerá del trastorno del cual se sospeche.
