Abstract:
A case of reconstruction of the lower eyelid with the combination of an orbicularis oculi musculocutaneous transposition flap as the covering flap and a free conchal cartilage graft as the lining is presented. It is believed that this combination gives an excellent result for the reconstruction of the medial portion of the lower eyelid in terms of features, form, function, and ease of reconstruction.
