Large Eyelid Defect Repair Using a Free Full-Thickness Eyelid Graft
Summary:. Large eyelid full-thickness defects are traditionally repaired using flaps with a blood-supplying pedicle, for the reconstruction of the anterior or posterior lamella or both. This is a 2-stage procedure involving occlusion of vision in the affected eye for 4–8 weeks, as the flap pedicle i...

However, the importance of using a flap with a pedicle to ensure adequate perfusion of the graft has recently been questioned. |
