Fournier's gangrene is a rare form of necrotizing fasciitis that affects the genital area up to the perineal region and sometimes the abdominal wall.
Our article aims to show that in the treatment of extensive forms of Fournier's gangrene, correct use of flap and skin grafts and a quick reconstruction of the exposed tissues avoid scarring retraction of the testicles and deformation of the penis.
We retrospectively reviewed the clinical and photographic data of Fournier's gangrene cases treated at our Institute. The data were evaluated to obtain an estimate of the results of the reconstructive technique used, in terms of percentage of occurred healings and eventual complications.
A total of 34 patients underwent surgery for Fournier's gangrene. In nine cases (26.5%), we had minor complications: in four patients, suffering from diabetes and obesity, a retard in attachment of graft occurred, while in five patients with perianal problems there was a delay in healing due to the onset of local infection.
The reconstruction approach described here may reduce surgical times. In Fournier's gangrene, the exposed tissues must be reconstructed as quickly as possible.
福尼尔坏疽是一种罕见的坏死性筋膜炎,累及生殖器区域直至会阴区,有时还会累及腹壁。
我们的文章旨在表明,在治疗广泛型福尼尔坏疽时,正确使用皮瓣和皮肤移植以及快速重建外露组织可避免睾丸瘢痕挛缩和阴茎变形。
我们回顾性分析了我院治疗的福尼尔坏疽病例的临床和影像资料。对数据进行评估,以估计所用重建技术的结果,包括愈合百分比和最终并发症情况。
共有34例患者接受了福尼尔坏疽手术。9例(26.5%)出现轻微并发症:4例患有糖尿病和肥胖症的患者,移植皮瓣附着延迟,而5例有肛周问题的患者因局部感染的发生导致愈合延迟。
此处描述的重建方法可能会缩短手术时间。在福尼尔坏疽中,外露组织必须尽快重建。
