Zusammenfassung: | Background and Aims:
The unique anatomical and physiological function of the perineum region makes it difficult to be repaired after tumor resection. We aim to evaluate the efficacy of PSC divisional reconstruction strategy in the reconstruction of perineal skin defect.
Materials and Methods:
This study includes patients undergoing perineal skin defect reconstruction with PSC strategy—P (penis), S (scrotum), C (circum-penoscrotal skin) divisional reconstruction strategy.
Results:
From August 2013 to August 2018, 47 patients were enrolled in the surgical procedure. The defect area after resection measured 2 cm × 2.5 cm, minimum, and 12 cm × 18 cm, maximum. Among them, the cases involved one, two, and three zones are 12, 10, and 25, respectively. The skin defects were divisionally repaired. All flaps were well survived without complications or scar contracture. No tumor recurrence happened.
Conclusion:
The application of PSC divisional reconstruction strategy is a promising way to repair wounds in circum-penoscrotal skin area. Moreover, this strategy is easy to process and shows no significant complications during follow-up period. |
