Severe ectropion: repair with a modified Tripier flap.

R J Siegel

    Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery
    |July 1, 1987
    PubMed
    Summary

    Severe lower eyelid ectropion requires addressing muscle weakness, not just lid laxity. A novel bipedicled musculocutaneous flap effectively reconstructs the eyelid, restoring support and function.

    Area of Science:

    • Ophthalmology
    • Plastic Surgery
    • Reconstructive Surgery

    Background:

    • Classical techniques for lower eyelid ectropion often fail in severe cases.
    • These methods primarily address lid laxity, neglecting the underlying cause: weakened pretarsal orbicularis muscle support.
