[Plastic surgery of the anorectal area. Indications, technique and outcome].
Anal canal stenosis with alteration of the sensoric continence or mucosal ectropion may occur after anorectal operations. Island flaps with perianal skin or the VY-anoplasty are simple plastic methods to reconstruct the anorectal region and cure patients--who often have suffered for a long time--from anal strictures or mucosal ectropion. In the period from 1994-1998 we reconstructed the anodermal region of seven patients using one of the above mentioned anorectal plastic procedures. Three patients complained of an anal stenosis and one patient suffered from an ectropion of the rectal mucosa after an improperly performed Whitehead hemorrhoidectomy. Three patients had a sensomotoric incontinence twice due to a congenital anal atresia and in one case caused by an accident. All patients were highly pleased after the operation--no complication occurred.
