OBJECTIVE: To probe into the methods and effects of small soft tissue defect of facial area, nose and eyelid repaired by temporal island flap pedicled with orbicularis oculi muscle.
METHODS: From 1994 to 1999, 12 cases with cicatricial ectropion of eyelid, scar in nose and facial area or facial mole were repaired by temporal flap pedicled with orbicularis oculi muscle. The maximal area of skin flap was 3 cm x 5 cm.
RESULTS: All the skin flaps were survived after operation. Six cases were followed up from 6 months to 4 years, the results were satisfied. There were no secondary deformity or scar formation in the donor site.
CONCLUSION: The blood supply of orbicularis oculi muscle is plentiful. It is a reliable method to repair of small facial tissue defect using temporal island flap pedicled with orbicularis oculi muscle. But in bigger facial soft tissue defect, it should be cautious.
