381. The Use of Unilateral Nasolabial Flap in Surgical Management of Lower Lip Cancer

Double lip or macrocheilitis is a rare facial anomaly, mostly congenital in origin. It commonly involves the upper lip than the lower lip. It may occur in isolation or as part of the Ascher’s syndrome. It results due to deposition of excessive areolar tissue and non-inflammatory hyperplasia of labial mucosa gland of pars villosa. It may be acquired as a result of injury to the lips or lip-biting habit. The double lip becomes conspicuous when the lips are retracted during smiling resulting in the characteristic ‘cupid’s bow’ appearance. This disfigurement can pose aesthetic and functional problems and may result in psychological distress. A surgical intervention is must for restoration of functions and to address the aesthetic concerns. The present article reports a case of non-syndromic double upper lip with triple labial frena and its surgical management with laser on one side and with scalpel on the other side.

Elliptical Section

The lower lip in some Shar Pei puppies curls up over the mandible, causing lingual displacement of the incisor and canine teeth and may result in interference with the natural growth of the mandible. Surgical correction of this defect at the proper age can allow the mandible to grow normally and avoid development of an uncomfortable mouth. Two methods of correction are described. Cheiloplasty has been used by the author on 99 puppies over a 10 year period, only two of which were returned for additional surgery because the result was inadequate; the cheiloplasty procedure was repeated in these two dogs. Excision of an elliptical section of the skin of the chin was performed once during the same 10 year period.
