Reconstruction of Preauricular Wounds Using a Flipped Island Pedicle Flap.
Dermatologic Surgery : Official Publication for American Society for Dermatologic Surgery [et Al.] 2019 January
BACKGROUND: Island pedicle flaps (IPFs) are a frequently used reconstructive option in dermatologic surgery. With variations in its execution, the flap can be used for an assortment of facial defects.
OBJECTIVE: To describe the execution of a flipped IPF for the reconstruction of medium to large preauricular wounds after Mohs micrographic surgery.
MATERIALS AND METHODS: An analysis of the flipped IPF reconstruction of 12 preauricular defects is presented. Patient demographics, surgical defects, aesthetic outcomes, and complications are described.
RESULTS: Twelve patients with 12 preauricular tumors (9 basal cell carcinomas, 2 squamous cell carcinomas, and 1 malignant melanoma) were treated using Mohs micrographic surgery. A flipped IPF reconstruction was successfully used with good cosmetic outcomes and no complications in all 12 patients.
CONCLUSION: In this series, the authors demonstrate the effective use of flipped IPFs for the reconstruction of medium to large preauricular defects with good aesthetic outcomes and no complications.
