After the lateral aspect of both the upper and lower eyelids were excised in six patients, a method of reconstruction was used employing a combination of periosteal flaps from the lateral orbital rim and a transpositional skin flap based in the temporal area. The periosteal flaps were crossed to form a sharp canthal angle and were joined to the tarsal edges creating the posterior lamella. The transpositional skin flap was divided at the distal end to form the anterior lamella of the upper and lower lids. The results have been satisfactory from a functional and cosmetic standpoint.
