| الوصف: | Upper eyelid ectropion is rare. When it does occur, the cicatricial subset of upper eyelid ectropion is its most common manifestation. Due to its rarity, little has been published regarding its treatment. Herein, we present the case of a 27-year-old patient who suffered significant left sided facial trauma in a high-velocity motor vehicle accident, resulting in a soft tissue defect in the left lateral supra-orbital region, including loss of the lateral half of the left eyebrow. The defect was left to heal by secondary intention causing severe cicatricial upper eyelid ectropion. Several reconstructive techniques were subsequently utilized including recreating the defect and replacing like with like tissues according to the facial sub-units. Right sided upper eyelid skin was used to replace the deficient left upper eyelid skin and a scalp composite graft was harvested to replace the deficient left lateral eyebrow. Temporary tarsorrhaphy, and steroid injections were used on multiple occasions to counteract the cicatricial forces. Ultimately, permanent lateral tarsorrhaphy and upper eyelid canthopexy was needed to obtain a satisfactory functional and cosmetic result. |
