Abstract:
The upper lip was totally reconstructed with a radial forearm sensory flap and vermilionplasty using medical tattooing after resection of a malignant melanoma. Three courses of chemotherapy (dacarbazine, nimustine, and vincristine) were given postoperatively. The reconstructed lip had good contour, colour, and sensory recovery.
