Lower lip cancer is typically treated with surgical excision, and this frequently results in a large defect and severe aesthetic problems. Local flap reconstruction is suitable for restoring appearance and function, and it causes less surgical stress than a vascularized free flap. The Fusuma sliding flap is a local flap technique introduced by Kasai et al in 2008. Here, the authors report their use of this method for lip reconstruction in a 94-year-old Japanese female after the removal of a cancerous mass.
