SCROTAL RECONSTRUCTION WITH A THINNED FLAP BASED ON BOTH INFERIOR EPIGASTRIC ARTERIES

Abstract

A 62-year-old man presented with an extensive defect of the scrotum caused by Fournier's gangrene. We reconstructed the scrotum using a thinned flap based on both inferior epigastric arteries one month after the first debridement. This method has the advantage of achieving adequate mobility of the reconstructed scrotum. The results were satisfactory both functionally and cosmetically, although we had to repair a hernia at the donor site a year later.
