    Area of Science:

    • Ophthalmology
    • Plastic Surgery
    • Reconstructive Surgery

    Background:

    • Medial canthal tendon (MCT) defects can result from trauma or surgery.
    • Current reconstruction methods have limitations.
    • A reliable technique for MCT reconstruction is needed.

    Observation:

    • A new surgical technique utilizes medially based orbicularis muscle flaps from both eyelids.
    • This approach aims to restore the integrity of the medial canthal region.

    Findings:

    • The described technique provides a method for reconstructing a resected medial canthal tendon.
    • Medially based orbicularis muscle flaps are employed for this purpose.

    Implications:

    • This technique may offer an effective solution for medial canthal tendon reconstruction.
  • Further studies are warranted to evaluate the long-term outcomes and efficacy of this approach.
