Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery
|September 1, 1985
Abstract:
A case report of hemangioma of the vermilion border treated with excision and free composite tongue graft is presented. A technique of lip reconstruction utilizing a composite tongue graft in one step has been described. It constitutes an improvement over the tongue pedicle flap technique, which has been hitherto used and requires two stages. The indications and limitations of the technique have been discussed.
