ABSTRACT

Large defects of the upper lip involve both aesthetic and functional reconstruction of the anatomical unit. Over time, different alternatives have been proposed, such as local flaps and free flaps. Surgeons choose between these alternatives depending on their indications, advantages and experience. We present the reconstruction of a large defect in the upper lip using an orbicularis oris musculocutaneous flap, with good functional and aesthetic result.
