An 82-year-old female patient presented with noduloulcerative basal cell carcinoma (BCC) on the right lower eyelid, extending laterally. Following full-thickness excision of the carcinoma with clear margins, a tarsoconjunctival flap was placed over the posterior lamella to create support and lining. A Mustardé flap was used for anterior lamella repair, and a rotating cheek flap was used to recreate the natural shape and function of the eyelid. Postoperative recovery was uneventful, with excellent flap viability and minimal complications. At follow-up, the patient demonstrated well-aligned eyelid function, good aesthetic outcomes, and histopathological confirmation of complete tumor excision. Hughes and Mustardé flaps combined in a single-step procedure offer a reliable and effective solution for managing extensive full-thickness eyelid defects post-BCC excision, as it maintains eyelid integrity, minimizes morbidity, and achieves favorable cosmetic and functional outcomes, serving as an invaluable approach in complex periocular reconstructions.
一名82岁女性患者右眼下睑出现结节溃疡性基底细胞癌(BCC),并向外侧扩展。在对癌灶进行切缘阴性的全层切除后,将睑板结膜瓣置于后层以提供支撑和衬里。使用Mustardé瓣修复前层,并用旋转脸颊瓣重塑眼睑的自然形态和功能。术后恢复顺利,皮瓣存活良好,并发症极少。随访时,患者眼睑功能对位良好,美学效果佳,组织病理学证实肿瘤已完全切除。Hughes瓣和Mustardé瓣在单步手术中联合使用,为BCC切除术后广泛的全层眼睑缺损提供了可靠有效的解决方案,因为它能保持眼睑完整性,将发病率降至最低,并取得良好的美容和功能效果,是复杂眼周重建中一种非常宝贵的方法。
