Abstract

An ideal method of perineal closure after resection for low rectal cancer surgery is a topic of debate. Morbidity associated with primary perineal closure due to wound break down delays recovery from surgery and adjuvant treatment with poor oncological outcome at the end. Herewith, we present our experience with V-Y gluteal advancement fasciocutaneous flap done for 131 patients for reconstruction of perineal and pelvic defect. With our experience, this is a safe and simple method with an acceptable complication rate that can be practiced by colorectal surgeons, even in the absence of a dedicated plastic surgery team.
