Treatment of nasal malignant tumor with electron beam irradiation after repair of nasolabial flap / 临床耳鼻咽喉头颈外科杂志

OBJECTIVE@#To explore the appropriate reconstructive methods and curative effect after nasal skin malignant tumor excision.@*METHOD@#Nasolabial flap was selected to cover the nasal defects in 15 cases which nasal tumors were removed. The secondary defect of donor site was directly sutured. Electron beam conventional radiotherapy (DT40-50 Gy/20-25 times/4-5 weeks) was delivered to the involved field after incision sutured out 2-5 days.@*RESULT@#A total of 15 patients with nasal tumor were available for follow-up of 6 to 24 months, no tumor recurrence occurred, and the repaired tissue were good match with surrounding tissue, good nasal contour was obtained with an inconspicuous scar.@*CONCLUSION@#These data indicate that the nasolabial flap can be used to repair defects of the nose tumors in 15 cases and is surgically convenient. Combination of nasolabial flap repairing and postoperative local electron beam irradiation, inhibited the recurrence of nose tumor effectively, is an ideal method.

A new technique of periorbital rhytidectomy with musculus dormitator suspension / 中华医学美学美容杂志

Objective To study one simple, safe and effective method of periorbital rhytidectomy. Methods With turgescent anesthesia, 1 cm -extent was dissected laterally deep under musculus orbicularis oculi at the approach of eyebrow area. The musculus orbicularis oculi was fixed to the deep temporal fascia and frontal periosteum. The superciliary corrugator muscle and depressor muscle were exposured and cut. Then the eyelid blepharoalasty was performed through the skin incision, meanwhile the lateral pars orbitalis muscle was liberated to form an orbitalis muscle flap under the orbitalis muscle and the fat pad, which was fixed to the os orbitale periost by lifting tight to lateral and upper side. For patients with generous pars buccalis and obvious nose lip ditch, the cheekbone fat cushion was also hanged and fixed. Results 65 middle age female patients were followed up for 3～16 months. The scar was no obvious, glabellar wrinkle and canthal wrinkle disappeared at static state, relaxed upper eyelid and eyebrow prolapse reached to complete correct, nasolabial groove wrinkle obvious lessened. 95 % patients were satisfacted with the appearance. Conjunctival edema was found in 4 cases, and disappeared within 1 months. There were no facial nerve injury and other complications. Conclusions It is a new incisional approach that avoids the facial nerves and lessens fossa orbitalis retrogradation. The operative procedure is simple and safe, and its incision is occult. The wound is small and restores rapidly, but the effect is reliable and lasting. It proves to be an ideal approach for face rejuvenation.
