This report explores a novel reconstructive option addressing all three needs. Traditionally, local flap options restore cosmesis and oral competency by recruiting local tissue of similar thickness, pliability, and appearance, but often result in microstomia. Conversely, free flaps prevent microstomia but can lead to bulky and cosmetically unacceptable reconstructions. We present the first case of using a super-thin superficial circumflex iliac artery perforator (SCIP) free flap for near-total, full-thickness lower lip reconstruction. The patient was a 66-year-old female with recurrent squamous cell carcinoma of the lower lip, requiring wide local excision and resulting in an 80% full-thickness defect with unilateral oral commissure loss. An 8 cm × 5 cm × 5 mm SCIP flap was raised with a 4.5-cm pedicle length and anastomosed to the facial artery and vein. Clear fluids were commenced 7 days postoperatively, wounds healed 2 weeks postoperatively, and a normal diet was resumed at this time. The SCIP flap offers an excellent additional option for managing full-thickness near-total to total lower lip defects. Its thin, pliable nature and minimal donor site morbidity help restore oral competency, maximize oral aperture, and achieve a pleasing cosmetic result.</p>\u0000 </div>","PeriodicalId":18600,"journal":{"name":"Microsurgery","volume":"44 7","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.5,"publicationDate":"2024-10-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142365817","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Our patient, 31-year-old man, with no medical conditions, had a fusion of L5–S1 due to severe lower back pain secondary to isthmic spondylolysis and spondylolisthesis.
