Abstract
The improvement of patient carcinological status by an abdominoperineal resection by extended posterior perineal approach in a prone position requires the plastic surgeon to consider other reconstructive options. We present an original double L-shaped free-style propeller flap used to reconstruct the vagina and the perineum of a 57-year-old patient after the resection of a T4 tumour of the lower rectum.
