Reconstruction of the Scrotum With Bilateral Gracilis Muscle Rotational Flaps in a Patient With Acute Myeloid Leukemia Complicated by Fournier’s Gangrene

We describe the case of a 43-year-old male diagnosed with acute myeloid leukemia complicated by Fournier's gangrene. Multiple debridements led to the complete effacement of the scrotum, with 360 degrees of exposed testes and a narrow base of suspension. It was decided to reconstruct the scrotum using bilateral gracilis muscle rotational flaps, followed by split-thickness skin grafting from the thigh. The gracilis muscle as a donor flap allowed for the protection and support of the testes and suspensory tissue while achieving an aesthetically pleasing result that resembled the normal scrotum. We hope providers will consider this reconstructive method in future patients who present with similar extensive effacement of the scrotal tissue.
