  • COMBINED THREE OPERATIONS FOR ONE STAGE DEFECTS REPAIR AFTER RESECTION OF LARGE XANTHELASMA PALPEBRARUM WITH EPICANTHUS

    ObjectiveTo investigate the effectiveness of combined three operations (rotated total upper eyelid skin flap, construction of double eyelid, and "Z" flap epicanthal plasty) for one stage defect repair after resection of xanthelasma palpebrarum with epicanthus. MethodsBetween December 2013 and December 2015, 12 female patients with large xanthelasma palpebrarum and epicanthus underwent rotated total upper eyelid skin flap, construction of double eyelid, and "Z" flap epicanthal plasty for one stage defect repair. The age ranged from 36 to 59 years (mean, 43 years). The course of disease was 3 to 16 years, with an average of 11 years. The initial resection was performed in 6 cases, second resection of residual xanthelasma palpebrarum in 4 cases, and 2 cases had recurrence after resection. The maximum diameter of xanthelasma palpebrarum was 0.5-1.3 cm (mean, 1.0 cm). According to CHE Junmin et al criterion, epicanthus was rated as mild in 7 cases, moderate in 3 cases, and severe in 2 cases. The blood lipid level was in normal range. ResultsPrimary healing of incision was obtained, and the flaps survived in all patients; no complication occurred. Scar hyperplasia was found in 4 cases at 1 month after operation, and the comprehensive treatment of scar was performed. All patients were followed up for 3 months to 2 years, with an average of 1.5 years. Double eyelid effects were good, and no xanthelasma palpebrarum recurred. ConclusionA combination of rotated total upper eyelid skin flap, construction of double eyelid, and "Z" flap epicanthal plasty is an effective operative procedure to repair defect after resection of xanthelasma palpebrarum with epicanthus; and better curve of double eyelid, better shape of endocanthion, and less tension of flap can be got.
