  • Title: [Reconstruction of the loss of substance of the lower lip. The "running stairstep" technic].
    Author: Peron JM, Andrieu-Guitrancourt J, Dehesdin D, Furet A.
    Journal: Rev Stomatol Chir Maxillofac; 1984; 85(4):302-6. PubMed ID: 6593794.
    Abstract:
    Reconstruction of near the totality of the lower lip after oncological resection or traumatic amputation, is a very challenging problem. The "step technique", introduced by Johanson, allows a good repair of the amputated lip, regarding amplitude, colour and function. The design of the flaps is recalled; and the authors present two cases which demonstrate the good result obtained with this simple but reliable method.
