Upper lip reconstruction with local island flap after neoplasm excision.

BACKGROUND: The upper lip is an important esthetic unit of the face and its reconstruction is a big challenge to the dermatosurgeon. OBJECTIVE: The aim of the paper is to present results of upper lip reconstruction for moderately sized defects with single island subcutaneously pedicled flaps, or in combination with additional local flaps. METHODS: Thirteen patients were operated upon mostly for malignant skin neoplasms. Defects of skin only were covered with island flaps planned individually to fit esthetic units of the face. Defects in skin and vermillion were covered with island flaps, and additionally and independently with flaps that reconstructed the vermilion. RESULTS: The healing process was in all the cases but one (partial flap necrosis) free of complications. Follow-up results were also very good functionally and esthetically.

Surgical management of primary carcinomas of the lower lip.

Carcinomas of lower lips are common neoplasms of the muco-cutaneous junction. Surgical resection of these tumors has the advantages of permitting histologic examination of the margins, achieving excellent cure rates, and yielding good aesthetic and functional results. We present the fundamental surgical procedures for management of pre-cancerous and primary cancerous neoplasms of the lower lip with which the surgical dermatologist should be familiar. These procedures may be done with local anesthesia in an outpatient surgical office. The techniques and case examples we describe include vermilionectomy and mucosal advancement, V-wedge resection, pentagonal wedge resection, and vermilionectomy combined with wedge resection.
