Eyelid reconstruction using a split eyelid flap after excision of a palpebral tumour in a Persian cat
2005
Hagard, G. M.
This case report documents the use in a cat of a method of palpebral reconstruction previously only described in a series of dogs. A split eyelid flap was used to reconstruct a deficit created by the removal of an apocrine adenoma of the paratrichial sweat gland on the upper lid. This particular technique was chosen over other methods because of its ability to create a smooth hairless eyelid margin. The method previously described in dogs was modified in the present case to address both the fact that the resection was more extensive and the difference in periocular anatomy in the cat.
