Total reconstruction of a two-compartment scrotum by tissue expansion.
A case report is presented showing the reconstruction of a two-compartment scrotum out of hair-bearing perineal skin following a severe degloving injury of the scrotum and testicles. We feel that this is an appropriate procedure to be used in patients who have lost the testicles and scrotum traumatically, either one or both testicles, or in the situation where both testicles have been spared. Aesthetically, the result in this patient is superior to skin grafting and should be readily reproducible.
