ABSTRACT

Objective@#To explore the application effect of tarso-conjunctival flap for one-stage repairing eyelid posterior defect after resection of eyelid tumors.@*Methods@#From June 2014 to December 2016, 33 patients with 33 cases of eyelid posterior tumors were treated, including 21 cases of Pigmented nevus of eyelid, 7 cases of eyelid basal cell carcinoma, 3 cases of eyelid adenocarcinoma and 2 cases of eyelid squamous cell carcinoma. Direct resection was performed for eyelid nevus, Mohs method (intraoperative delivery of frozen sections to control the cut edge) resection was performed for malignant tumors. According to the scope and location of the defect, the tarso-conjunctival flap was used to repair the posterior defect of the eyelid, and the eyelid anterior defect was treated with local flap transfer.@*Results@#All 33 patients were followed up for 3 to 24 months. In addition to the absence of eyelashes in the defect area, one case had mild blepharoptomy (1 mm) and recovered after self-recovery. The remaining cases had recovered in appearance and function of eyelid with no serious complications.@*Conclusions@#The flexible application of tarso-conjunctival flap can basically solve the problem of repairing eyelid posterior defect after resection of eyelid tumors.
