Our new surgical procedure with two triangular flaps for macrostomia repair allows us to achieve all three therapeutic goals, including formation of symmetric lips and commissures of the mouth, reconstruction of the orbicularis muscle of mouth to restore labial function, and reconstruction of the commissure of the mouth with a natural looking contour. Furthermore, the position of the commissure of the mouth can be adjusted intraoperatively according to the extent of macrostomia. As reported here, our method provides very satisfactory clinical results and is relatively easy to perform. Thus, we believe that our method can serve as a standard for the surgical treatment of macrostomia.
