Postablative reconstruction of vulvar defects with local fasciocutaneous flaps and superficial fascial system repair

“…The fasciocutaneous flaps most commonly used are the mobilised ones from the perineal region due to their high vascularisation and wide mobility: lotus petal flap [21,22], V-Y flap from the pubic region [23], V-Y advancement flap from the gluteal fold [24] and from the medial thigh [25] and pudendal-thigh flap [26].…”

Reconstructive options in severe cases of Hidradenitis suppurativa

“…Various flaps for the axillary region have been described such as scapular island flap [25], lateral thoracic island fasciocutaneous flap [26], posterior fasciocutaneous flap [27], perforator based flaps [28][29], local transposition flaps [18,[30][31]. For the groin, various flaps such as anterolateral thigh, tensor fascia lata, and lotus petal flaps have been described [32][33].
