Abstract:
ObjectiveTo summarize the clinical characteristics of pt osis,one of complications after double eyelid blepharoplasty, and to explore i ts causes and attempt for the resolutions. MethodsThe clinica l symptoms were divided into three types based on the degrees of the ptosis afte r double eyelid blepharoplasty. The causations in 25 cases of different degree o f ptosis after double eyelid blepharoplasty were investigated and analyzed durin g operations. The local adhesive deformities were analyzed so as to take differe nt resolutions for the complication. Results It seemed that th e operative damage to the aponeurosis was the main reason for the complication. So it caused the scar adhesive deformities between the palpabralis aponeurosis a nd the orbital membrane or the skin of upper eyelid, resulting in the difficult y of the palpabralis muscle's contract and unablility of the muscle function in different degrees. Conclusion The ptosis can surely be av oided if we have good knowledge about the mechanism of double fold formation and the anatomy of eyelids and perform the operation meticulously.
