[Reconstruction of full-thickness lower eyelid defects].
This review covers the techniques of reconstruction of large full-thickness defects of the lower eyelid. The authors describe tree cases of basal cell carcinoma of the lower eyelid, with large excision of the tumor. We excised the tumor and examined the edges with an extemporaneous histological exam. Reconstruction combined grafts and flaps. The advantages and disadvantages of the various techniques of lower-eyelid reconstruction are discussed.
