Abstract

Radiation therapy is an important modality in the treatment of prostate cancer. Its primary goal is eradication of the disease. Several treatment-related sequelae in the primary site of the tumor and the pelvic lymph nodal drainage regions have been reported in the literature. Among these complications, skin radionecrosis lesions of the inguinal region are rarely reported in the literature and reconstruction of the defects resulting from their excision remain challenging for plastic surgeons around the world. Several surgical reconstructive strategies have been described ranging from skin grafts to perforator flaps. Through this paper we aim to highlight the utility and relevance of McGregor flap in its pedicled peninsular form as a local solution for the coverage of loss of soft tissues in the groin region consecutive to skin radionecrosis.
