ABSTRACT
Fournier's gangrene is a potentially life-threatening infectious disease involving the perineum and genitals. Aggressive surgical and medical management is often required, leaving the patient with large integumentary defects. The multiplicity of reconstructive options reported highlights the lack of consensus on the best covering option. Functional and aesthetic considerations are in play, and the literature is scarce on male black patients. We report here two cases of dark-skinned patients presenting with scrotal and penile integumentary defects that were respectively reconstructed with a superficial circumflex iliac artery propeller perforator flap and a split-thickness meshed skin graft and discuss the available literature on the topic.
