title: [Reparation of sequelae of penile-scrotal and perineal gangrene. Apropos of 4 cases].
abstract: The authors report different techniques for surgical reconstruction of the sequelae of penile, scrotal and perineal gangrene. The repair of skin defects and the reconstruction of the scrotum requested several interventions. Where the scrotal skin loss was limited to a 1/2 of scrotum, the testis could be covered by mobilising the surrounding rim. When the disease was confined to the penis or inguinal region, skin cover has been provided by free grafts. More elaborate techniques of skin cover were necessary when the disease was extended to the whole scrotum: a fasciocutaneous flap from the thigh was used for reconstruction of the scrotum. The scrotal myocutaneous flap was used to cover skin and anterior urethral loss of tissue.
