Abstract

LAGARES BORREGO, A. et al. Lower eyelid reconstruction with orbicularis oculi and nasalis myocutaneous island flaps. Cir. plást. iberolatinoam. [online]. 2009, vol.35, n.1, pp.35-42. ISSN 1989-2055.

This article proposes the use of two types of myocutaneous island flaps (orbicularis oculi and nasalis pedicle flaps respectively), for the reconstruction of full or partial defects after tumoural resection. Seven cases are reported: 4 of which required a compound nasal cartilage graft for the replacement of the internal lamella. We acquired optimal functional and aesthetic results.

Keywords : Lower eyelid reconstruction; Basal cell carcinoma; Chondromucosal graft.
