    Author: Rampazzo A, Gharb BB, Chi Chen H.
    Journal: J Plast Reconstr Aesthet Surg; 2010 Apr; 63(4):e384-6. PubMed ID: 19896424.
    Abstract:
    Lower eyelid is characterised by a thin musculocutaneous anterior lamella and a posterior lamella composed of tarsus and conjunctiva. Several techniques have been reported for total lower eyelid reconstruction suitable especially for the elderly patients with skin laxity. We report a total lower eyelid reconstruction with a free posterior auricular chondrocutaneous flap with a good functional and aesthetic outcome in a young patient. This technique can be taken into consideration for complex soft-tissue defects of the eyelids.
