Pages 305-308
Received 17 Dec 1984
Published online: 08 Jul 2009
 

In the treatment of cicatricial entropion it may be necessary to bring new tissue to the lid margin after this has been split and the eyelashes have been everted. A bipedicled tarsoconjunctival flap from the proximal part of the tarsus forms a stable and non-irritant new lid rim for both the upper and the lower eyelid. The donor site is closed by advancement of the conjunctiva of the fornix. Three case histories are presented.
