Issue Date: | 1988 | Citation: | Yeo, J.F.,Egyedi, P. (1988). Reconstruction of soft tissues of the chin and lower lip region following excision of a basal cell carcinoma. Journal of Cranio-Maxillofacial Surgery 16 (C) : 337-339. ScholarBank@NUS Repository. | Abstract: | A rather unusual case of basal cell carcinoma of the labio-mental fold area is presented where it was possible to preserve the vermilion of the lower lip after wide excision. This made reconstruction with bilateral nasolabial flaps and a platysma myocutaneous flap possible. Thus the sensitivity of the lower lip could be partly preserved, a competent lip seal obtained, microstoma avoided and a good vestibulum reconstructed. © 1988 Georg Thieme Verlag Stuttgart, New York. | Source Title: | Journal of Cranio-Maxillofacial Surgery | URI: | http://scholarbank.nus.edu.sg/handle/10635/79920 | ISSN: | 10105182 |
