17
Q

Treatment for SCC involving vermillion lip

A

Wide surgical excision with 1cm margin

Reconstructed with Karapandzic flap or Webster bernard flap

18
Q

What is the Karapandzic technique and what vessel is it based on?

A

An axial pattern musculocutaneous flap based on the facial artery/vein - superior and inferior labial arteries. Branch of facial a. v.

Indicated lip reconstruction where defect is <3/4

Simultaneous, bilateral, full-thickness circumoral flaps with isolation and preser- vation of vascular and neural structures

Has good motor and sensory function of the new lip

19
Q

Describe technique of Karapandzic flap

A
  1. Outline the excision of the disease lip with wide margin of 1cm
  2. Extend the outline below the lower lip along the labiomental fold, extending upwards towards the nasolabial fold
  3. wide excision of tumor
  4. Incision thru skin n subcut
  5. Blunt dissection of orbicularis muscle radially to free from its attachment
  6. Preserving vessels and nerves
  7. Mucosal incision up to commisure to mobilize the flap
  8. Layered closure
20
