VERMILION-DEFICIENCY

Vermilion Reconstruction with Genital Mucosa

Functional and aesthetical reconstruction, especially of the upper lip after ablative tumor surgery, can be very challenging. The skin of the lip might be sufficiently reconstructed by transpositional flaps from the nasolabial or facial area. Large defects of the lip mucosa, including the vestibule, are even more challenging due to the fact that flaps from the inner lining of the oral cavity of...

Medial Vermilion Augmentation in Unilateral Cleft Lip Repair by Lateral Vermilion Flap

In this study we review vermilion reconstruction during the unilateral cleft lip repair. A serious of 15 cases with unilateral cleft lip either complete or in complete where treated using the lateral triangular vermilion flap technique to ensure vermilion augmentation resulted in good approximation of both medial and lateral sides.

I. Contrasts Between the vermilion andforked Loci

We have surveyed three natural populations of Drosophila ananassae for restriction map variation at the forked c f ) and vermilion (v ) loci, using 6-cutter restriction enzymes. Both loci are located in the centromeric region of the X chromosome. Two major conclusions can be drawn from the data. First, we found strong evidence for population subdivision, i .e . , significant differences in the ...

A Method for Reconstruction of Vermilion Tubercle

BACKGROUND This article reports on the bilateral lip mucosa flaps (BLMFs) for reconstruction of the vermilion tubercle of the corrected cleft lip deformity. METHODS From 2005 to 2013, the bilateral mucosa flaps procedures were performed on 34 secondary cleft lip patients (bilateral, n = 25; unilateral, n = 9). We retrospectively reviewed the pre-, intra-, and postoperative data of these 34 ca...
