A patient with exstrophy of the bladder in whom we performed vulva reconstruction using a tissue-expansion technique and local flaps was presented. The ultimate result was in concert with the anatomic characteristics of normal external genitalia with regard to type of skin, pigmentation, hair pattern, quality of circulation, and sensory supply.
A case of xeroderma pigmentosum with multiple skin tumors on the face that was treated with total excision and replacement of face skin except the eyelids with a monoblock full-thickness abdominal skin graft is reported. The quality and tumor-free features of the monoblock full-thickness skin graft in xeroderma pigmentosum are indicated. Despite the increased morbidity of the donor region, the radical surgical approach advocated here has improved the prognosis in the case reported.
This paper presents a simple method of carrying deeply located recipient vascular structures to the surface in order to facilitate end-to-side anastomoses in free-flap transplantations.
