The use of myocutaneous flaps following radical excision of the external genitalia.

Summary— Myocutaneous and fascio-cutaneous flaps have enabled single stage combined surgical resections and reconstructive procedures to be carried out for locally advanced, non-metastatic carcinoma of the external genitalia. The need for delayed repair procedures with their associated morbidity and prolonged hospital stay is minimised. Functional loss resulting from the removal of the supporting muscle is rarely a problem.
