title: [Reconstructive surgery of the upper lip with esthetic-functional recovery].
abstract: Two cases are reported of reconstructive surgery of the upper lip in patients who had squamous cell carcinoma, using the Bürrow technique. This technique is more used in lower lips because it does not involve esthetic unity. We have opted for it in the upper lip also, using a variation in the lip commissure incision, getting a significant functional and esthetic result.
