Zusammenfassung:We report a novel use of the Integra™ dermal regeneration template to facilitate a functional recovery in a young male with Fournier's gangrene. After multiple debridements he had a large soft tissue defect and local flaps were not possible for reconstruction. Integra™ facilitated reconstruction of a neo-scrotum to allow a good cosmetic outcome.
