Contribution to the reconstruction of the lower lip after tumour resection combined with neck dissection.

Methods of reconstruction of lip defects following tumour resection must also be assessed in their suitability, as to whether it is possible to combine the simultaneous total excision of the regional lymphatic drainage with the achievement of a functionally and aesthetically satifactory result. The current methods of reconstruction in use in the Hamburg Clinic are demonstrated from this point of view. By viualising the lymphatic drainage in tumours of the lower lip, it is shown that there is no method of reconstruction which realises the principle of en bloc resection of tumours. Supported by the results of postoperative investigation, it can, however, be shown that the percentage of recurrence in the area of lymphatic drainage can still be kept extremely low by observing various principles.
