Abstract

We have found the perineal artery axial flap to be useful in reconstruction of moderate defects of the perineum. The experimental surgical technique and clinical applications of the perineal artery axial flap are updated. Our experience with 10 patients over the past 5 years is reviewed. The advantages of this flap are that it is thin and the donor site morbidity is minimal.
