title: [Reconstruction of the lip vermillion using a myo-mucosal advancement flap].
abstract: A classical method of reconstruction of full- thickness vermilion defects by myo-mucous advancement flap of the restant vermilion (15) has been used in five cases. The restant vermilion has been raised from the underlying white lip and stretched over the defect in one stage. For trauma or benign disease with a defect of one half or less of the vermilion, this one stage reconstruction has given fiable results. This technique has respected the lips function, the sub-unit aesthetic principles, and areas of tissue availability.
