Abstract

Eyelash area and eyelid marginal defects can be quite problematic to reconstruct in case of deficiency due to its unique features. Reconstruction of eyelashes not only contributes to aesthetic but also functional results. The switch flap technique, which aims to reconstruct eyelashes in two stages, can provide a tissue with reliable vascularity. Besides, the main advantage of the technique is the reconstruction of the eyelashes with their exact equivalents and the ability of primary closure of the donor area.

Abstract

Kirpik bölgesi ve göz kapağı marjinal defektleri kendine has yapısı nedeniyle eksikliği durumunda rekonstrüksiyonu oldukça problemli olabilen bir alandır. Kirpiklerin rekonstrüksiyonu, sadece estetik değil aynı zamanda fonksiyonel sonuçlara da katkı sağlar. İki aşamada kirpiklerin rekonstrüksiyonunu amaçlayan switch flap tekniği, oldukça güvenilir vaskülariteye sahip bir doku sağlayabilmektedir. Bunun yanında, tekniğin asıl avantajı kirpiklerin birebir eşdeğerleri ile rekonstrüksiyonunu ve donör alanın primer kapanması avantajlarını beraberinde getirmesidir.
