Objective: To investigate the three-dimensional lip vermilion changes after extraction and non-extraction orthodontic treatment in female adult patients and explore the correlation between lip vermilion changes and incisor changes. Methods: Forty-seven young female adult patients were enrolled in this study (skeletal Class III patients were excluded), including 34 lip-protruding patients treated by extraction of four first premolars (18 patients requiring mini-implants for maximum anchorage control and 16 patients without mini-implants) and 13 patients requiring non-extraction treatment. Nine angles, seven distances, and the surface area of the lip vermilion were measured by using pre- and post-treatment three-dimensional facial scans. Linear and angular measurements of incisors were performed on lateral cephalograms. Results: There were no significant changes in the vermilion measurements in the non-extraction group. The vermilion angle, vermilion height, central bow angle, height/width ratio, and vermilion surface area decreased significantly after the orthodontic treatment in the extraction groups, but the upper/lower vermilion proportion remained unchanged. Significant correlations were found between the changes in incisor position and those in vermilion angles, vermilion height, and surface area. Conclusions: Extraction of the four first premolars probably produced an aesthetic improvement in lip vermilion morphology. However, the upper/lower vermilion proportion remained unchanged. The variations in the vermilion were closely related to incisor changes, especially the upper incisor inclination changes.

The author presents a new method for the formation of Cupid's bow and the vermilion tubercle by using the inferior-based lip skin flap in a secondary bilateral cleft lip deformity. The length of the flap includes the entire length of the previous upper lip scar. Both skin flaps are elevated and turned down toward the central part of the vermilion. The distant portion of the turned-down skin flaps are deepithelialized and trimmed according to the new shape of Cupid's bow. The deepithelialized portions of both flaps are buried under the central vermilion mucosa in order to create the vermilion tubercle. The advantages of the proposed procedure are; provision of a more natural shape of Cupid's bow, the lip length is increased, and the vermilion tubercle can be reconstructed at the same time. Therefore, this technique is best suited for a case of a bilateral absence of Cupid's bow combined with a short lip in a sufficient upper lip of a bilateral cleft lip deformity. The proposed procedure, however, should be avoided in the tight upper lip because of a great deal of tension on the donor.

Background The vermilion plays an important role in both the aesthetic and functional aspects of facial anatomy. Due to its structural features, the complete excision of vascular anomalies on the vermilion is challenging, making it difficult to determine the appropriate treatment strategy. Thus, the authors analyzed the results of surgical treatment of vascular anomalies on the vermilion. Methods The medical records of 38 patients with vascular anomalies on the vermilion who underwent surgery from 1995 to 2013 were analyzed. Nine of the cases had an involuted hemangioma, and 29 cases had a vascular malformation; of the vascular malformations, 13, 11, one, and four cases involved were capillary malformations (CMs), venous malformations (VMs), lymphatic malformations (LMs), and arteriovenous malformations (AVMs), respectively. We investigated the surgical methods used to treat these patients, the quantity of surgical procedures, complications and instances of recurrence, and self-assessed satisfaction scores. Results A total of 50 operations were carried out: 28 horizontal partial excisions, eight vertical partial excisions, and 14 operations using other surgical methods. All cases of AVM underwent complete excision. Six cases experienced minor complications and one case of recurrence was observed. The overall average satisfaction score was 4.1 out of 5, while the satisfaction scores associated with each lesion type were 4.2 for hemangiomas, 3.9 for CMs, 4.2 for VMs, 5.0 for LMs, and 4.0 for AVMs. Conclusions It is difficult to completely excise vascular anomalies that involve the vermilion. This study suggests that partial excision focused on correcting the overall contour of the lips is effective and leads to satisfactory results.

Background: The mental V-Y advancement flap method is useful for reconstruction of lower lip defect because of its many advantages. However, it is not easy to select the optimal reconstructive method for the vermilion defect that remains after application of the mental V-Y advancement flap. In choosing the representative surgical method for vermilion mucosal reconstruction including mucosal V-Y advancement flap, buccal mucosal flap, and buccal mucosal graft. We describe an efficient technique to large lower lip defects combining mental V-Y advancement flap and buccal mucosal graft Methods: This study included 16 patients who underwent reconstructive surgery for full-thickness and large defect (> half the entire width) of the lower lip from October 2006 to September 2017. The operation was conducted using mental V-Y advancement flap with various vermilion mucosal reconstruction methods considering the location of the defect and the amount of residual tissue of the lip coloboma after excision. Results: All patients underwent mental V-Y advancement flap. In vermilion mucosal reconstruction, five patients underwent mucosal V-Y advancement flap, three underwent buccal mucosal flap, and eight underwent buccal mucosal graft. There were good aesthetic and functional results in all patients who underwent buccal mucosal graft. However, two patients who underwent mucosal V-Y advancement flap complained of oral incompetence, and all patients who underwent buccal mucosal flap had oral commissure deformity. Conclusion: Buccal mucosal graft combined with mental V-Y advancement flap can produce suitable functional and aesthetic outcomes in near total lower lip reconstruction in patient with large mucosal defect including vermilion portion.

입술의 돌출을 해소하고자 하는 환자들은 자신의 안모 개선을 안모의 측면보다는 거울로 볼 수 있는 정면을 통하여 느끼는 것이 보편적이다. 안모의 정면에서 평가가 이루어질 때에는 입술이 후방으로 들어간 정도와 함께 입술과 그 주위 조직의 수직적 변화에 의해서도 큰 영향을 받을 수 있으므로 교정치료 진단이나 치료 후 평가를 위한 측모두부방사선 사진 분석 시 전통적으로 중요시되고 있는 입술의 시상적 이동뿐만 아니라 흔히 간과하기 쉬운 수직적인 변화에 관해서도 평가가 이루어져야 한다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 입술 돌출을 주소로 내원한, 성장이 완료된 성인 여성 61명을 대상으로 측모두부 방사선 사진을 촬영하여 전치의 후방견인 시 나타나는 입술과 주위 연조직의 수직적 변화를 계단식 다중 회귀분석법을 이용하여 조사한 결과 다음과 같은 결론을 얻었다. 1. 상,하순의 philtrum길이 (SnLs, LiB') 는 전치의 후방견인 후 증가하였고, 상,하순의 vermilion height (LsStms, StmiLi) 와 vermilion length (LsLi) 는 감소하였다. 2. 상,하순의 길이 (SnStms, StmiB')와 연조직의 하안면 고경 (SnMe')은 치료 후 유의성 있는 변화를 보이지 않았다. 3. 상순의 philtrum길이 증가에 상악 전치의 정출 ${\Delta}U1V$이 가장 큰 영향을 주었으며 하순의 philtrum길이 증가에는 치료 전 overjet이 가장 큰 영향을 주었다. 4. 상,하순의 vermilion height감소에 상순의 두께 감소가 가장 큰 영향을 주었다.

Background: $Abb{\acute{e}}$ flap technique is one of the most challenging operations to correct horizontal deficiencies in secondary cleft lip deformity. Since its first introduction, the operative method was dynamically modified from simple variation to complete conceptual change, but conventional $Abb{\acute{e}}$ flap has many drawbacks in esthetic and functional aspect. Our purpose was reconstructing the symmetry of Cupid's bow and central vermilion tubercle with minimal sequalae. Methods: From 2008 to 2016, this technique was applied to 16 secondary cleft lip patients who had total or more than 60% of unilateral deficiency of Cupid's bow and central lip or tubercle pouting deficiency. A quadrangular-shaped flap was transferred from vermilion including skin and white line of central or contralateral lower lip. Pedicle division and insetting were made at 9 (unilateral) or 10 (bilateral) days after transfer. Secondary lip revision was done with open rhinoplasty after wound maturation. Results: Overall satisfaction was high with modified technique. Scar was minimally noticeable on both upper and lower lip especially. Balanced Cupid's bow and symmetric vermilion tubercle were made with relatively small size of flap compared to conventional $Abb{\acute{e}}$ flap. An accompanying benefit was reduced ectropion of lower lip, which made balanced upper and lower lip protrusion with more favorable profile. Conclusion: A new modified $Abb{\acute{e}}$ flap technique showed great satisfaction. It is worth considering in secondary cleft lip patient who has central lip shortage and asymmetry of upper lip vermilion border line. Our technique is one of the substitutes for correction of horizontal and central lip deficiency with asymmetric Cupid's bow.

초파리의 유전자 purple과 여기서 만들어내는 효소 sepiatperin synthase를 사용하여 염색체상의 위치에 EK른 유전자의 ontogenic expression과의 관계에 대해 연구하였다. 전위된 purple mutant $T(Y:2)pr^c5, 추/pr%c4 추$의 성체는 wild type과 $pr^1$에 비하여 이 효소의 activity가 현격한 감소를 나타내었으나 이 activity의 감소는 larval stage에서 발견되지 않았다. 이것으로 미루어 보아 Y염색체상의 purple 유전자가 늦은 larval stage나 이른 pupal stage에 불활성화 된 것으로 사료된다. Tryptophan pyrrolase는 eye pigment 생합성에 관여하는 유전자인 vermilion에서 만들어지는데, 이 효소의 활성도 역시 초파리의 발생단계에 따라 측정하였다. 전위된 vermilion gene을 가지고 있는 초파리의 한 mutant는 발생과정중 늦은 larval stage에서 activity peak을 보여주는데 반하여 Oregon-R은 이 시기에서 가장 낮은 activity를 나타내었다.

Purpose: The authors accessed the anthropometric measurements of fourty non-cleft normal a three-month-old infant and using this obtained data as a basic guideline, authors applied the modified Noordhoff technique for the treatment of bilateral cleft lip. Methods: Over a period of 10 years, a total of 21 bilateral cleft lips were operated. 13 cases of complete and 8 cases of incomplete bilateral cleft lip and palate. In the complete type of bilateral cleft palate, elastic head cap and passive intraoral appliance were applied at 1 to 2 week of age for 2 months duration. The definitive cheiloplasty was performed at 3 months of age using the modified Noordhoff technique. Results: After a follow-up period ranging one to nine years, most patients presented with cosmetically and functionally satisfying results, with an exception of two cases where an undesired peaking effect of the vermilion and dimpling of the vermilion mucosa was encountered. Conclusion: Accessing the anthropometric measurements of fourty non-cleft normal three-month-old infant and using this obtained dara as a guideline, the modified Noordhoff technique can be applied to either complete or incomplete bilaterally cleft lip providing more naturally pleasing and cosmetically satisfying scars that lie in harmony with the philtral ridges, lip tubercle positioned just below the vermilion and a distinct white line and Cupid's bow.
