[Plastic surgery of the inner angle of the palpebral fissure]

The new method for treating posttraumatic deformations of the internal angle, in contrast to its analogs, helps attain the maximal anatomical correlation between the transposed tissues, is atraumatic, involves a lesser incidence of postoperative complications, and permits fixation of the internal adhesion of the lids with a device including a fixing element and an elastic clip. The fixing element is a metal plate repeating the contours of the internal angle with sharp hook-like holders supplied with compression regulators. The clip is a supporting element (on the contralateral side of the slope of the nose) oriented in the contralateral direction. This device permits the creation and regulation of soft tissue compression in the internal angle of the lid slit during early cicatrization period.
