FERRAZ, Pedro Dias; PINHO, André and VIEIRA, Ricardo. Double Island Slip Flap for Reconstruction of Surgical Defects of the Upper Lip. Rev Soc Port Dermatol Venereol [online]. 2021, vol.79, n.2, pp.68-70. Epub Oct 01, 2021. ISSN 2182-2395. https://doi.org/10.29021/spdv.79.2.1357.
The double V-Y sliding island flap is a viable option for the reconstruction of lip defects, with a favorable cosmetic-functional result.
We present the case of a woman with a basal cell carcinoma of the upper labial region, that after excision, has been reconstructed using a double sliding island flap. The authors describe the surgical technique as well as its main advantages and applicability.
