ABSTRACT

BACKGROUND:

Surgery of the nasolabial area is susceptible to the distortion of lips, commissure and nasal ala. A subcutaneous pedicle flap is suitable for surgical treatment of mid-size facial defects.

OBJECTIVE:

To evaluate the effectiveness of a subcutaneous pedicle flap for surgical defects of the nasolabial area.

METHOD:

We reviewed the medical records and evaluated clinical aspects and surgical treatment outcomes.

RESULTS:

Total number of patients was 13, including 8 males and 5 females. Mean age was 67.7years-old. Surgical defects were present on the alar crease in 9 cases, and upper lip in 4 cases. Mean size of defects was 1.6 by 1.3 cm. Flaps were well adopted, and no surgical scars were visible. No distortion of the adjacent structures were left. However, the alar crease was slightly blunted in one patient.

CONCLUSION:

A subcutaneous pedicle flap is suitable for reconstruction of nasolabial area defects.
