Summary

This trial is testing AuriNovo, a custom-made biological ear implant, for people born with underdeveloped ears (microtia Grades II-IV). The study aims to ensure the safety of the implant and improve surgical techniques. The goal is to see how well the implant works and lasts. AuriNovo is developed using novel tissue engineering techniques, including a 3D-printed biodegradable auricle scaffold combined with patient-derived cells.

Trial Design

1Treatment groups
Experimental Treatment
Group I: AuriNovoExperimental Treatment1 Intervention
AuriNovo is a patient-specific, biologically natural, supportive base for surgical reconstruction of the external ear (auricle) in people born with microtia Grades II-IV. The construct is a 3D-bioprinted collagen hydrogel scaffold encapsulating the patient's own auricular cartilage cells (chondrocytes). The construct is printed in a size and shape that matches the contralateral ear for implantation into the patient.
