Abstract
The main aim of this study is to evaluate the advantages, disadvantages, and aesthetic results of the total lower eyelid reconstruction with paranasal flap. The other reconstruction methods are also revisited.Ten patients, who were operated for the reconstruction of total lower eyelid defects between November, 1999 and April, 2005 in our department were included in this study. The total lower eyelid defects of all patients were reconstructed using paranasal flap for anterior lamella and chondromucosal, chondrocutaneous or mucosal graft for posterior lamella. Follow-up time was ranged between 3-35 months. The advantages, disadvantages and complications were defined and aesthetic results of the patients were also evaluated by using a questionnaire which was filled by patients at third month after reconstruction. All flaps and grafts survived, partial or total necrosis was not encountered but one patient with ectropion had a secondary reconstructive procedure. The aesthetic results of the patients were also satisfactory. The paranasal flap is very reliable and safe method for total lower eyelid reconstruction.
