Eyelid injuries secondary to dog bites are common, particularly ones involving the
lacrimal system. Full thickness eyelid avulsion is less often seen after dog bites.
We report an unusual case of a young female who underwent replantation of full thickness
avulsed eyelid tissue after a dog bite. The skin of the grafted eyelid necrosed
postoperatively and was replaced with bioengineered skin substitute resulting in
good functional and cosmetic outcomes.
