Functional and aesthetic reconstruction of a large upper lip defect using combined three local flaps: A case report
RATIONALE: A significant clinical issue for treating patients with large upper lip defects is how to reconstruct the lip functionally and aesthetically. Traditional methods usually lead to asymmetry of the nasal base, philtrum and the lips. PATIENT CONCERNS: A 22-year-old lady presented with a large...

description | RATIONALE: A significant clinical issue for treating patients with large upper lip defects is how to reconstruct the lip functionally and aesthetically. Traditional methods usually lead to asymmetry of the nasal base, philtrum and the lips. PATIENT CONCERNS: A 22-year-old lady presented with a large congenital nevus on her upper lip which involved the cutaneous, vermilion, and the philtrum. Secondary deformity caused by previous partial excisions was also identified. DIAGNOSES: Patient was diagnosed as upper lip nevus with secondary deformity after partial excisions. INTERVENTIONS: We repaired the large upper lip defect by using combined nasolabial rotation flap and orbicularis oris myocutaneous flap. An additional small piece of mucosal flap was used to lengthen the vermilion. OUTCOMES: After the surgery, patient with large upper lip defects achieved satisfactory cosmetic and functional repair. LESSONS: Reconstruction of the upper lip has been successfully accomplished through the use of combined nasolabial rotation flap, orbicularis oris myocutaneous flap, and a small piece of mucosal flap. |
