Dermatosurgery Rounds - The Island SKIN Infraorbital Flap
نویسندگان
چکیده
The main objective in dermatologic surgery is complete excision of the tumour while achieving the best possible functional and cosmetic outcome. Also we must take into account age, sex, and tumour size and site. We should also consider the patient's expectations, the preservation of the different cosmetic units, and the final cosmetic outcome. Various reconstructive methods ranging from secondary healing to free flap applications are usedfor the reconstruction of perinasal or facial defects caused by trauma or tumour surgery. Herein, we describe the nasal infraorbital island skin flap for the reconstruction in a patient with basal cell carcinoma. No complications were observed in operation field. The infraorbital island skin flap which we describe for the perinasal area reconstruction is a safe, easily performed and versatile flap. The multidimensional use of this flap together with a relatively easy reconstruction plan and surgical procedure would be effective in flap choice.

BACKGROUND The retroangular flap is usually used to reconstruct small ipsilateral facial defects. The purpose of this study was to explore the use of the contralateral retroangular island flap for reconstructing large midfacial defects. METHODS Retroangular flaps raised from the contralateral infraorbital region were used to reconstruct midfacial defects in 12 patients after the resection of ...

BACKGROUND Skin cancer is the most common malignancy in humans and the incidence continues to rise. Facial reconstruction after cutaneous tumour ablation is a challenging job and needs thorough knowledge of the anatomy and physiology of face skin, biomechanics of skin and muscles, design of local flaps and their blood supply. The objective of this study was to report the aesthetic results of sl...
متن کاملA modified pectoralis major myocutaneous flap technique with improved vascular supply and an extended rotation arc for oral defects: A case report
The pedicled pectoralis major myocutaneous (PMMC) flap is versatile, and is widely used for the treatment of surgical defects following oral cancer resection. Although free-tissue transfer of a vascularized free flap is often preferred, the clinical benefits of the PMMC flap should not be overlooked. The conventional technique of harvesting a PMMC flap involves a single vascular supply from the...

Background: Finger tip injuries are one of the most common types of injury. Destruction of the skin in this area leads to destruction of sensory receptors. As hand function is closely related to sensibility of the finger tips, selecting the best procedure of reconstruction that provides the highest degree of sensation is very important. As V-Y Flap and neurovascular Island flap are more common ...
