Summary
This summary is machine-generated.

Facial plastic surgeons show varied preferences for upper lip reconstruction. The nasolabial flap is least favored, while choices like the cheek advancement flap and Abbé flap depend on surgeon experience.

Area of Science:

  • Plastic Surgery
  • Facial Reconstruction
  • Surgical Techniques

Background:

  • Reconstructive method choices for upper lip defects are influenced by clinical factors like defect size and location.
  • Surgeon experience and comfort level also play a significant role in selecting reconstructive techniques.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To survey a selected group of facial plastic surgeons regarding their preferred reconstructive methods for a moderate-sized upper lip defect.
  • To analyze surgeon choices in relation to experience and comfort levels.

Main Methods:

  • A survey was distributed to 313 facial plastic surgeons, requesting them to rank reconstructive options for a specific upper lip defect.
  • Response data was correlated with predictor variables including surgeon experience (years in practice) and self-reported comfort level.

Main Results:

  • The study achieved a 45.6% response rate.
  • The cheek advancement flap (34.4%) and Abbé flap (31.2%) were the most frequently preferred methods.
  • The nasolabial flap was statistically the least popular choice (13.9%, p<.01).
  • Surgeons with >20 years and <10 years of experience favored the Abbé flap, while those with 11-20 years preferred the cheek advancement flap.

Conclusions:

  • Surgeon preferences for upper lip reconstruction methods exhibit variability.
  • The nasolabial flap is consistently the least favored option among the surveyed surgeons.
  • Reconstructive choices demonstrate discernible trends based on the surgeon's level of experience.
