Abstract:
In this report, we are presenting a case in which we have split the paramedian forehead flap, thus providing 2 axially perfused skin flaps for simultaneous reconstruction of the upper and lower lid structures after resection of basal cell carcinoma from the left medial canthal area. We found that split forehead flap seems to be a favorable option for simultaneous reconstruction of the upper and lower eyelid defects by enabling nicely vascularized and abundant amount of regional skin.
