Full thickness eyelid reconstruction
Lea Mogilnicki
Novo Mesto GH, Slovenia
Eyelid anatomically consists of anterior and posterior lamellae.
Every lamella has its own function and should be reconstructed
separately and in layers. Anterior lamella consists of skin and
muscle, posterior lamella of tarsal plate and of conjunctiva.
Anterior lamella is what you see first. The skin should
match surrounding skin considering texture and color. For
reconstruction you should follow relaxed skin tension lines
for best cosmetic result. I will show some advantages of flaps
over free grafts. Posterior lamella supports the lid and helps
with closure of the lid aperture. After excision a lid margin you
should reconstruct both lid lamellae. For reconstruction of
posterior lamella you can use tarsal plate or cartilage. One can
take cartilage from ear conchae, nasal septum or you can take
hard palate graft. I will show the possibilities of tarsal grafts and
explain the reasons for decisions, considering the position and
the size of a tumor. With those graft you can achieve lid stability
and prevent lid malposition like ectropion or entropion.
