    Author: Brenner P, Krause-Bergmann A, Axmann D, Berger A.
    Journal: Chirurg; 1995 May; 66(5):537-40. PubMed ID: 7607021.
    Abstract:
    This paper describes the technique to reconstruct the genitals after an episode of Fournier's gangrene using the rectus abdominis muscle flap. A 44-year-old diabetic man felt ill with a Fournier's gangrene following inguinal herniotomia. The infection could be treated by aggressive débridement and by muscle flap coverage. Then we reconstructed the genitalia.
