Pre-expanded Bipedicled Supratrochlear Perforator Flap for Simultaneous Reconstruction of the Nasal and Upper Lip Defects.

The double "S" principle should be followed for facial reconstruction: the "similarity" of the donor site to the defect area and the reconstruction should be based on the different "subunits" of the face. In this article the pre-expanded, bipedicled supratrochlear perforator flap method is described, which is used for the resurfacing of both nasal and upper lip defects. This method can provide 2 independent flaps with sufficient tissue from 1 single donor site, resurfacing the nasal and upper lip units separately and providing an unparalleled color and texture match and ideal reconstructive result.
