{Abstract}: <B>UNASSIGNED: </B>Full thickness defects of lower eyelid, following oncological resection, often pose a formidable challenge to the operating surgeon. Although a plethora of reconstructive options have been tried, the Mustardé flap has stood the test of time.<BR><B>UNASSIGNED: </B>Our patient, a 57-year old lady, diagnosed with basal cell carcinoma of the left lower eyelid underwent full-thickness wide local excision and reconstruction using modified Mustardé flap. The anterior part of defect was reconstructed using the flap. The posterior part was reconstructed using septal mucoperichondrial-cartilage composite graft, sutured to remnant palpebral conjunctiva.<BR><B>UNASSIGNED: </B>The patient had an uneventful post-operative period. On serial follow-up, the patient had an acceptable scar. At 6 months follow-up, the facial scar was barely perceptible with normal lower lid disposition.<BR><B>UNASSIGNED: </B>The modified Mustardé flap is a simple and reliable reconstructive option for full-thickness lower eyelid defects following oncological resection in carefully selected cases.
