Article Abstract
The surgical treatment of oral squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) results in tissue defects caused by the removal of the cancerous tissue. There are various reconstruction options available for lip construction. Harvesting the flap to reconstruct these defects undoubtedly results in substantial morbidity. Lip reconstruction can be performed more efficiently and with reduced side effects by utilizing flaps, which can minimize donor site morbidity and shorten surgical harvesting time. We are reporting a case involving a 52-year-old male with SCC of the lip who presented without any comorbidity. This case report describes the careful lip reconstruction using the Fujimori gate flap technique following complete surgical excision of the lesion.

A low purine diet has been recommended for patients with gout and hyperuricemia, but there are concerns about excessive carbohydrates and a lack of protein. A well-balanced diet in accordance with general dietary guidelines is widely recommended. The Mediterranean diet and the DASH (Dietary Approaches to Stop Hypertension) diet are also recommended for gout and hyperuricemia patients.

The Fujimori gate flap has been known and used for reconstruction of defects resulting from oncologic surgery. In this case report, we describe how this flap was utilized in reconstructing the upper lip of a patient who experienced an electrical burn injury resulting in 70% tissue loss of the upper lip with exposed alveolar bone. A 22-year-old man presented to our institution with near total full-thickness burn over the upper lip, deep partial thickness burns over left upper lid, and superficial partial thickness burns over both malar areas, anterior chest, and both legs.
