Posterior Helical ear pits
by candk77, Nov 05, 2009 03:46PM
How common is it to have posterior helical ear pits? My daughter has them bilateral, she is also over 99% for height(parents 5'7"& 5'11), and was hypoglycemic at birth. Her pediatrician assures me that they are very common. I understand that peri-auricular pits are common but the literature I have read actually states that PHeP are not common at all and can sometimes serve as a tool in recognizing certain syndromes.
