This study introduces a novel one-stage upper lip reconstruction using everted mucosal advancement flaps. This technique offers superior functional and aesthetic outcomes for significant upper lip defects.

Area of Science:

  • Plastic Surgery
  • Reconstructive Surgery

Background:

  • Upper lip defects often require complex reconstruction.
  • Existing methods may yield suboptimal aesthetic and functional results.

Observation:

  • A novel one-stage reconstruction technique for upper lip defects is presented.
  • This method utilizes everted mucosal advancement flaps for vermilion border reconstruction.

Findings:

  • The technique is an extension of Meyer's method for lower lip reconstruction.
  • It employs horizontal incisions with bilateral triangular skin excisions, avoiding unaesthetic perpendicular incisions.
  • The procedure is effective for reconstructing defects up to 80% of the upper lip's substance.

Implications:

Related Experiment Videos

  • This technique offers improved functional and aesthetic results compared to traditional methods.
  • It provides a valuable alternative for complex upper lip reconstructions.
  • The method minimizes visible scarring along the vermilion border.
