The right side inner ear structures are normal and there is anomaly in external ear, middle ear which are the causes of conductive hearing loss.
Right ear should be reconstructed to allow the passage of the sound waves at the same time the transmission of sound should be enhanced by using hearing aids.
I advise you to consult the ENT surgeon and audiologist for further evaluation and of management.

Done HRTC Temporal Bone For Child. What Treatment Can Be Done To Hear Normally?
Hi, Thank you for your query on Healthcare Magic. So the left side ear is normal. The right side inner ear structures are normal and there is anomaly in external ear, middle ear which are the causes of conductive hearing loss. Right ear should be reconstructed to allow the passage of the sound waves at the same time the transmission of sound should be enhanced by using hearing aids. I advise you to consult the ENT surgeon and audiologist for further evaluation and of management. Hope I have answered your query. Regards.
