Save the Date: Pediatric Grand Rounds Aug. 16

Yula Indeyeva, M.D., a facial plastic and reconstructive surgeon at McCollough Plastic Surgery Clinic in Gulf Shores, Alabama, will present at the next pediatric grand rounds.

Her lecture, titled "Molding Therapy for Newborns with Congenital Auricular Deformities: A Successful Non-Surgical Correction Method," will be held at 8 a.m. Friday, Aug. 16, at the Strada Patient Care Center first-floor conference room.

In her talk, Indeyeva will identify relevant embryology, normal auricular anatomy, and prevalence of auricular deformities; determine awareness of congenital auricular deformities amenable to early non‐surgical correction; describe the technique of creating and applying a corrective ear splint; assess photographic results of correction; and establish a protocol allowing for early identification and referral of auricular deformities for non‐surgical correction.

Pediatric grand rounds is every third Friday of the month. The event is open to USA faculty, staff and students. A light breakfast, coffee and beverages will be provided.
