Area of Science:

  • Dermatology
  • Oncology
  • Surgical Science

Context:

  • External factors like UV radiation and tobacco use can induce precancerous changes in the lip vermillion.
  • These changes manifest as dry, crusty epithelium and painful ulcerations, increasing the risk of squamous cell carcinoma.
  • The vermillion border, particularly on the lower lip, is susceptible to these damaging effects.

Purpose:

  • To evaluate the efficacy of vermillionectomy in treating lip vermillion abnormalities.
  • To assess the functional and cosmetic results of vermillionectomy in a series of patients.
  • To present vermillionectomy as a potential solution for chronic lip conditions with malignant potential.

Summary:

  • A consecutive series of 25 patients underwent vermillionectomy for lip vermillion changes.
