Abstract

Two patients with penile skin loss who were operated in 1991 are reviewed retrospectively. In both of them skin grafting was mandatory (due to large skin defects on the penile shaft). Causative factors were localized infection in one case and verrucae accuminata in another. In both cases a random flap from the skin of the inner surface of the thigh was applied. The pedicle flap was later transected.
