Minor and major lip reconstruction.

P J Gullane, G F Martin

    The Journal of Otolaryngology
    |April 1, 1983
    PubMed
    Summary
    This summary is machine-generated.

    Lip reconstruction techniques have advanced, with local flaps excelling for small to medium defects. Extensive lip and facial resections remain challenging, with few advantages of modern flaps over the traditional visor forehead flap.

    Area of Science:

    • Plastic Surgery
    • Reconstructive Surgery

    Background:

    • Lip reconstruction has evolved significantly over the last 20 years.
    • Numerous techniques exist for repairing lip defects, with varying degrees of success.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To review current advancements in lip reconstruction techniques.
    • To compare the efficacy of different methods for various defect sizes.

    Main Methods:

    • Review of established and innovative lip reconstruction techniques.
    • Comparison of outcomes based on defect size and location.

    Main Results:

    • Local lip switch flaps are superior for small to medium defects compared to distant tissue options.
    • Nasolabial flaps are recommended for total lip loss.

  • Extensive resections involving the lip, premaxilla, mandible, and surrounding facial/neck skin present ongoing challenges.

    • Conclusions:

    • Local flaps offer excellent results for smaller lip defects.
    • Nasolabial flaps are a reliable option for complete lip loss.
    • Challenging, extensive facial defects still require further innovation, with limited benefits of advanced flaps over the visor forehead flap.
