Fournier's gangrene is a potentially life-threatening infectious disease involving the perineum and genitals. Aggressive surgical and medical management is often required, leaving the patient with large integumentary defects. The multiplicity of reconstructive options reported highlights the lack of consensus on the best covering option. Functional and aesthetic considerations are in play, and the literature is scarce on male black patients. We report here two cases of dark-skinned patients presenting with scrotal and penile integumentary defects that were respectively reconstructed with a superficial circumflex iliac artery propeller perforator flap and a split-thickness meshed skin graft and discuss the available literature on the topic.
福尼尔坏疽是一种可能危及生命的传染病,累及会阴和生殖器。通常需要积极的手术和药物治疗,这会使患者留下大面积的皮肤缺损。报道的多种重建选择凸显了在最佳覆盖方案上缺乏共识。功能和美学因素都在起作用,而关于男性黑人患者的文献很少。我们在此报告两例深色皮肤患者,分别采用旋髂浅动脉推进穿支皮瓣和中厚网状皮片移植修复阴囊和阴茎皮肤缺损,并讨论该主题的现有文献。
