Approach: In the current report; we report a case of microtia who was conceived as a result of ovulation induction with letrozole. Results: This case draws our attention to the safety of letrozole as an ovulation induction medication. Conclusion: The reported case here mandates that babies delivered as a consequence of ovulation induction with aromatase inhibitors should be examined antenatal and postnatally for possible congenital anomalies and to be reported to settle the argument weather theses medications are safe or not in term of ovulation induction.
