Abstract

We present our experience of reconstruction of inguinal soft tissue defect following inguinal lymphadenectomy, because of penile squamous cell carcinoma. Malignant infiltration required wide resection, producing a defect requiring complex soft tissue reconstruction. We have used a pedicled anterolateral thigh flap as our first choice flap for this case. Patient achieved reasonable esthetic coverage. Complications were few and patient achieved durable long term coverage. We found this flap to be technically easy, reliable and effective.
