Tarsoconjunctival-Skin Flap as Another Option in Correcting Ectropion for Oro-Ocular Cleft Reconstruction: Report of 2 Cases.
Facial clefts are rare facial anomalies. Among them, oro-ocular cleft remains a challenging malformation due to ectropion of the inferior palpebra which can constitute an emergency when the patient's globe is exposed leading to exposure keratitis and blindness. Here we report surgical procedures to correct lower eyelid ectropion using tarsoconjunctival-skin flap performed on 2 cases. In conclusion, tarsoconjunctival-skin flap can be provided to effectively correct lower eyelid ectropion and is a better option when nose correction is not involved simultaneously.

A Double-Lobe Flap Design Combined Nasolabial Advancement and Infraorbital Rotation for Reconstruction of Infraorbital Defect.
Various adjacent flaps have been designed to close infraorbital defect, and each of them is trying to get an aesthetic outcome and meanwhile circumvent eyelid retraction, ectropion, and functional disability. Here, the authors report an adjacent double-lobe flap, which took advantage of nasolabial advancement and infraorbital rotation of the 2 lobes, combinatorially closed a pentagon infraorbital defect by removal of 2 small skin paddles as donor sites, and finally yielded an acceptable aesthetic and functional outcome. This flap may be a new option for closure of polygon infraorbital defects.

The effectiveness of a simultaneous medial spindle procedure for involutional punctal ectropion with lid laxity in patients who require endonasal dacryocystorhinostomy instead of external dacryocystorhinostomy to prevent pump failure.
The aim of this study was to determine the effectiveness of a concurrent medial spindle procedure (MS) to address involutional punctal ectropion and the proportion of combined surgery in patients who need endonasal dacryocystorhinostomy (DCR) instead of external dacryocystorhinostomy to prevent pump failure.. We conducted a retrospective, interventional study on endonasal DCR and MS procedures performed between March 2004 and January 2009 by a single surgeon (S.H.B.). Patient age, sex, the results of a medial distraction test, the surgical procedure, follow-up duration, and cause of failed surgery were recorded. The indication for the medial spindle procedure was punctal eversion on slit lamp biomicroscopic examination with classifications of grades 2 and 3 on the medial distraction test.. Endonasal DCRs were performed on 169 eyes in 121 patients, and DCR and MS (D + M) were performed on 23 eyes in 17 patients. The proportion of combined surgery to total DCR was 13.6%. Our primary success rate was 86.9% in the combined surgery group and 87.2% in the DCR group (P = 0.39).. The MS for correction of punctal ectropion concurrently performed with endonasal DCR will be an effective tool to manage epiphora caused by complex situations, such as nasolacrimal duct obstruction and involutional punctal ectropion. We recommend careful examination of the punctum, which is invisible in normal conditions, under slit lamp biomicroscopy before endonasal DCR.

Reconstruction of lower eyelid retraction or ectropion using a paranasal flap.
This report aims to describe a paranasal flap technique for reconstruction of lower eyelid retraction and ectropion.. After the contracture of the lower eyelid skin or conjunctiva had been thoroughly released, the ipsilateral upper pedicle paranasal flap was designed according to the size of the lower eyelid skin wound. After dissection of the flap, the subcutaneous tissue of the flap was trimmed according to the depth of the wound, the flap was rotated to cover the defect, and an anchor was fixed to the distal aspect of the outer canthus. The secondary defect of the donor area was sutured directly.. In this study, 67 patients with lower eyelid defects resulting from correction of eyelid retraction and ectropion were reconstructed using paranasal flaps between April 2004 and October 2009. The sizes of the paranasal flaps ranged from 0.6×2.2 to 1.5×3.5 cm. At the follow-up assessment, the patients could close their eyes easily and completely without lagophthalmos, and neither the upper lips or the nasal ala showed any anatomic deformities. The features of the paranasal flaps, such as skin color, texture, and contour of the repaired tissue, were a good match with the surrounding skin. The suture lines of the donor areas were sheltered well.. Paranasal flaps were used for effective reconstruction of lower eyelid retraction or ectropion, with achievement of good eyelid function and a good color, contour, and texture match with the surrounding skin. Overall, the functional and cosmetic results were satisfactory.. This journal requires that authors assign a level of evidence to each article.

A delayed diagnosis of lepromatous leprosy: pitfalls and clues to early recognition.
To remind special attention to atypical symptoms of Hansen's disease, we report a case of an atypical case due to a delayed diagnosis.. Clinical features of leprosy are well known, cutaneous lesions and involvement of the peripheral nerves being the cardinal clinical signs. Among these presentations, systemic involvement, including mucous membranes of the upper respiratory tract and eyes, is rarely reported even if it is still commonly seen in endemic areas, in particular lepromatous leprosy.. We describe here a new case of Hansen's disease in a 51-year-old Tunisian woman with an atypical presentation and a delayed diagnosis. The early symptoms of the disease were different from the main clinical signs of Hansen's disease since they involved the upper respiratory tract and the eyes. A nasal smear was positive for acid-fast bacilli, thus confirming the diagnosis of bacilliferous leprosy. Histological findings suggested the diagnosis of leprosy and were somewhat more characteristic of the borderline lepromatous type.. Diagnosis of Hansen's disease in patients with neither apparent skin lesions nor neurological signs is still problematic. Clinicians should not only pay attention to the more obvious signs in their own fields of expertise but should be aware of the possible systemic involvement of leprosy.

Autogenous fascia lata grafts: clinical applications in reanimation of the totally or partially paralyzed face.
Although they are traditionally reserved for "aesthetic refinement" in the latter stages of facial reanimation surgery, the author uses a variety of autogenous fascia lata grafts in a very aggressive approach as the primary therapeutic option in static facial rebalancing and/or in conjunction with dynamic muscle transfers to achieve architectural integrity and functional restoration of the totally or partially paralyzed face.. Forty-nine autogenous fascia lata grafts, harvested through serial incisions in the lateral thigh, were placed in 35 totally or partially paralyzed faces. The grafts were categorized by anatomical location: I and II, lateral lip in totally paralyzed and partially paralyzed faces, respectively; III, nostril suspension; IV, lower eyelid suspension; V, bimalar lower lip sling; and VI, platysma transfer/autogenous fascia lata extension for lower lip invagination.. In all group I and II cases, static balance of facial architecture was restored at 4 to 6 weeks (after swelling resolved). Average lip commissure displacement was corrected to within 0.5 cm of the horizontal axis. Subjective functional improvement in speech, fluid retention, and chewing was immediate in all cases. In group I (n = 10; median age, 10.5 years), a 60 to 100 percent symmetrical smile was achieved with voluntary gracilis contraction of 3 of 5 to 5 of 5. In group II (n = 20; median age, 33 years), with 16 sling only patients, one to two grades of voluntary risorius and lip elevator motion were achieved in most. When accompanied by a temporalis turnover flap, both risorius and lip elevator function improved two to three grades. In group III (n = 5), inspiratory collapse was ameliorated in all cases and nasal flow improved subjectively 80 to 100 percent. In group IV (n = 4), scleral show and keratitis were improved in all cases. In group V (n = 6), improved oral competence was achieved in all patients. In group VI (n = 4), static lip evagination was achieved in all cases; voluntary lip depressor function was two to four grades improved.. Early placement of autogenous fascia lata restores static balance of the deeper facial architecture in repose. Functional improvement of chewing, fluid retention, speech articulation, smile symmetry, and ectropion is immediate. The psychological effect is also immediate, with achievement of self-esteem and acceptance by family and peers.

[Palliative treatment of facial paralysis].
Facial nerve palsy disrupts both the static and dynamic equilibrium of the half-face involved. The imbalance worsens with age and senility further aggravates the situation. Palliative surgery can be used in complete intractable facial palsy or rarement for partial palsies or as a temporary treatment. The operation is proposed mostly for elderly patients and does not create other malformations or dysfunctions. Simple and effective reduction, cervicofacial lifting and plicature of the skin muscles is used with ocular protection (passive eyelid circle, lateral de-epidermalized skin flap, blepharorraphia) with or without use of locoregional tissues (orbito-naso-genial and labiogenial flaps) are usually sufficient.

[Reverse flow axial island flap in the mastoid region].
Anatomical and clinical studies on the reverse flow axial island flap in the mastoid region were reported. The studies in the dissection of 9 cadavers with a total of 17 sides and the observations in 6 operations proved that the blood in the superfacial temporal artery could flow reversely into the postauricular artery through the anastomotic branches to nourish the mastoid island flap. So the island flap wit a fascia pedicle containing the superficial temporal vessels could be transferred to various region of the face through subcutaneous tunnel to repair deformities of the orbit, nose, eyes and cheek in one stage operation. This reverse axial island flap has been utilized in 18 cases. 16 flaps survived. All cases were followed up for 2 to 7 years. The results were satisfactory.
