“…The blood supply to the graft comes from recipient bed. Therefore, important conditions for graft revascularization are rich vascular supply of recipient bed and very close contact between graft and recipient surface [1].…”

“…In the relevant literature, the most common early postoperative complication after skin transplantation is hematoma formation [1]. To prevent it, we made multiples stab incisions on the graft to create pathways for blood drainage.…”

“…FTSG are nowfrequently used by plastic surgeons as anterior lamellasubstitutes in eyelid reconstruction surgery, providing tissuewith similar color, texture, and thickness.The perioculararea is considered a suitable host, having a rich vascularsupply for capillary regrowth, as well as collagen producingfibroblasts which help in graft adherence [1,2]. This successfulcombination of graft and host has subsequently made itwidely used in eyelid reconstruction surgery after trauma, burns, and tumour removal [6].The aim of the present report was to present the reconstructive techniquein inferior medial canthus with preauricular full-thicknessskin and here we showed the illustration of the respective technique.…”

“…BCC of periocular area are localized in the inferior eyelid, medial canthus and superior eyelid [2]. Complete surgical excision remains the "gold" standard of treatment it produces excellent results if the tumour is completely removed [1]. Reconstruction of the medial canthal defect created after removal of tumour is the challenge to the oculoplastic surgeon.…”

Basal cell carcinoma in medial canthal is a surgical challenge to oculoplastic surgeon. We report a case an 80 -year-old woman who presented with a vegetative tumor in the right inferior medial canthus that increased slowly in size over the past two years. An excisional biopsy from the tumor was suggestive of a basal cell carcinoma. A full-thickness excision of the tumor within the oncologic safety limits, was performed. A wide range of reconstruction techniques should be customized to the individual patient. In this case, the use of a preauricular full. Thickness skin graft was a favorable option, without complications, and with acceptable functional and cosmetic results. The aim of the treatment is to restore anatomy, functional and cosmetic of the patients.

Reconstruction of eyelid defects, especially the posterior lamella, remains challenging because of its anatomical complexity, functional considerations, and aesthetic concerns. The goals of eyelid reconstruction include restoring eyelid structure and function and achieving an aesthetically acceptable appearance. An in-depth understanding of the complex eyelid anatomy and several reconstructive principles are mandatory to achieve these goals. Currently, there are multiple surgical treatment options for eyelid reconstruction, including different flaps, grafts, and combinations of them. This comprehensive review outlines the principles of reconstruction and discusses the indications, advantages, and disadvantages of currently available surgical techniques. We also propose our clinical thinking for solving specific clinical questions in eyelid reconstruction and offer perspectives on new potential methodologies in the future.
