摘要:
We present a new approach to the bipedicle myocutaneous upper eyelid to lower eyelid flap in the repair of cicatricial ectropion in lower eyelid reconstruction, and in the release of tension caused by a previous cheek rotational flap. By incorporating the pedicles into the flap design, we prevent the persistent lymphedema and the raw tissue placed against exposed epidermis encountered in previous bipedicle myocutaneous flaps. Although there may be disadvantages associated with this procedure, we have not encountered any to date. Advantages of this procedure include the double source of blood supply and the superior cosmetic result as well as the avoidance of a second operative procedure. We recommend the use of the bipedicle myocutaneous flap in selected cases.
