Near-total lower lip reconstruction: combined Karapandzic and Bernard-Burrow-Webster flap

Acta Dermatovenerol Alp Pannonica Adriat. 2017 Mar;26(1):19-20.

Abstract

Lip carcinoma is a common cancer of the head and neck region. It more often affects the lower lip (> 90%), and squamous cell carcinoma represents 95% of the cases. The authors present a reconstruction of the lower lip combining two classical flaps: the Karapandzic and Bernard-Burrow-Webster flap. The surgical technique is discussed.
