“…The specific use of the inferiorly based nasolabial flaps to repair mouth floor defects has been described by Cohen et al, Edgerton et al, and Zarem 2,3,7,22) . The nasolabial flap is well suited for intermediate-size intraoral defects of the medial cheek, upper lip, palate, and anterior floor of the mouth.…”

We treated two patients requiring nasolabial flap reconstruction. The first patient was a 75-year-old man with mucoepidermoid carcinoma in the left-side floor of the mouth; requiring resection of the floor of the mouth, partial mandibulectomy, and left supraomohyoid neck dissection.The second patient was a 74-year-old man with recurrent acinic cell carcinoma in the anterior oral floor infiltrating as far as the mandible. This patient required wide excision of the anterior part of the oral cavity, including amputation of the mandible.After tumor resection, both cases had a nasolabial flap reconstruction. The postoperative course of both cases was good; neither postoperative flap necrosis nor infection developed.

“…More frequently bilateral random NLFs are required depending on the site and size of defects. The flaps are tunnelled through the cheek, interdigitated and sutured to the defect [5]. Division of the pedicle and insetting is usually carried out 3 weeks later.…”

An inferiorly based pedicled NLF is a reliable flap for the reconstruction of small and medium sized defects in the oral cavity. The flap can be best utilised for old edentulous and high risk patients where it can be used as a single stage procedure which is particularly useful in those types of patients. The flap can be safely combined with neck dissection even when the facial artery was ligated.

“…[ 2 ] Advantages of the flap are relatively easy and it is a short operative procedure compared to other reconstructive techniques, also the donor site morbidity is minimal. [ 3 4 ] The flap has widely been used in the reconstruction of the lip and floor of the mouth, however, there are few reports on the usage of this method in the reconstruction of the anterior oral cavity. [ 2 ] We hereby present this patient as a good example for the versatility of the nasolabial flap in anterior oral cavity defects.…”

A 56-year-old woman with a recurrent depressed scar of the commissure, treated with a nasolabial island flap, is presented. On examination, the scar was located on the right modiolus involving the right upper gingivobuccal sulcus. A history of recurrent canine abscess was obtained. After excision of the scar and release of the vestibular fold, reconstruction of the defect was performed with a nasolabial island flap from the same side. The postoperative course was uneventful, with a good aesthetic and functional outcome.
