Abstract:
To reconstruct a lower eyelid defect involving two aesthetic cutaneous subunits, we propose the use of bilateral upper eyelid dermatochalasis. A homolateral heteropalpebral flap combined with a contralateral upper eyelid skin graft is our first-line option for cutaneous coverage. In the case of full-thickness defects, a composite tarsoconjunctival graft harvested from the three healthy eyelids provides satisfactory and functionally competent tissue reconstruction.
