dc.description.abstractIntroduction: The propeller flap taken from the nasolabial flap is well suited for the medial canthal reconstruction. The propeller flap used in one-stage reconstruction is suitable for maintaining the normal concavity of the medial canthus; however, sometimes, the use of the propeller flap can lead to various complications. Aim: In this research article, we aimed to investigate the results of repairing the medial canthus defect using a propeller flap from the nasolabial fold. Materials and Methods: This study was a descriptive and cross-sectional research. We performed this retrospective study with the participation of 37 patients with medial canthal defects who underwent surgical treatment at a research and training hospital in the past 3 years. Data were obtained from the electronic medical records. In patients with medial canthal defects, the results of patients reconstructed with a propeller flap taken from the nasolabial fold were observed. Results: Of the patients, 37.8% were between 65 and 74 years old, and 59.5% were male. 83.8% of the medial defects resulted from the excision of basal cell carcinoma. After repair of the medial canthal defect, venous stasis developed in 8.1% of patients and trapdoor deformity in 13.5% of patients. Patients who developed venous stasis recovered without intervention, and those with trapdoor deformity underwent surgical intervention again. Smokers had a higher risk of venous stasis, and women had a higher risk of developing trapdoor. Conclusion: Successful patient outcomes after surgery are very important in the repair of medial canthal defects. The use of the propeller flap has produced excellent results. However, it is very important to stop smoking during the perioperative process. We recommend more detailed studies in larger sample groups on the development of the trapdoor in women. We conclude that the propeller flap taken from the nasolabial fold is effective and safe in the medial canthal reconstruction.en_US
