BACKGROUND: Eyelid reconstruction represents a challenge because of the complexity of
this structure. Full-thickness eyelid defects demand the reconstruction of 2 fundamental …

Eyelid reconstruction is a complex topic. This review looks at articles from 1990 to 2018 on
eyelid reconstruction that had at least 10 patients and a mean 6 month follow-up. The …

Eyelid surgery involving resection of more than half the eyelid and formation of full‐thickness
defect requires not only reconstruction of the anterior lamella, but also reconstruction of the …

Reconstruction of eyelid defects, especially the posterior lamella, remains challenging
because of its anatomical complexity, functional considerations, and aesthetic concerns. The …

Lower eyelid is characterised by a thin musculocutaneous anterior lamella and a posterior
lamella composed of tarsus and conjunctiva. Several techniques have been reported for …

Purpose The reconstruction of large (> 50%) upper eyelid margin defects can be technically
challenging, with multiple approaches described in the literature. We sought to review the …

Reconstruction of full-thickness upper eyelid defects often requires repair of both the anterior
lamella (skin and orbicularis oculis muscle) and the posterior lamella (tarsus and …

AIM To investigate the suitability of a modified Hughes procedure, which consists of
conjunctival flap with auricular cartilage grafting in reconstructing large full thickness upper …

Repair of full-thickness defects of the lower eyelids poses a challenge because a graft in
combination with a flap is typically used to replace either the posterior or the anterior …

* BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE: Full thickness reconstruction of more than half of an
eyelid, mainly of the upper one, is a challenge for the surgeon. In 1992, for the first time, the …
