Area of Science:

  • Ophthalmology
  • Plastic Surgery
  • Reconstructive Surgery

Context:

  • Lower eyelid reconstruction presents significant aesthetic and functional challenges.
  • Various surgical techniques exist for addressing lower eyelid defects.
  • The study evaluates a specific reconstructive approach implemented between 1985 and 1988.

Purpose:

  • To assess the efficacy of a combined upper lid bridge flap and septal composite graft technique for lower eyelid reconstruction.
  • To determine the suitability of this method for different types of lower eyelid defects.

Summary:

  • Seventeen patients underwent reconstruction using an upper lid bridge flap combined with a composite graft from the septum.
  • The technique was applied to both smaller through-and-through defects and total lower eyelid reconstructions.
