Total loss of upper and lower lips: challenges in reconstruction.

S Nath1, G Jovic.   

Abstract

A 2-year-old girl lost both lips after an aggressive attack of noma (gangrenous stomatitis). After an unsuccessful attempt to reconstruct her upper lip, a bipedicled chin flap was used to reconstruct both lips. The cosmetic result was good and the functional result was acceptable.
