RESUMO
BACKGROUND: Acquired penile defects can be secondary to various pathologic conditions, including infection, scar, or complications following urologic procedures. Penis defects with skin deficit carry a distinct challenge for reconstructive surgeons. Scrotal flaps can provide reliable coverage and can restore distinct qualities of native penile skin. METHODS: A series of patients presented with a variety of acquired penile defects. Each of these patients underwent staged bipedicle scrotal flap surgery for coverage by the senior author. RESULTS: Eight patients underwent bipedicle scrotal flap reconstruction for penile defects with a skin deficit. All eight patients had satisfactory outcomes postoperatively. Only two of the eight patients had minor complications. CONCLUSIONS: For select patients presenting with underlying deficit of penile skin, bipedicle scrotal flaps prove to be a safe, reproducible, and reliable reconstructive technique for penile resurfacing. CLINICAL QUESTION/LEVEL OF EVIDENCE: Therapeutic, V.

In the title mol-ecule, C11H9NO4, the two acet-oxy groups are twisted from the plane of the benzene ring by 67.89â (4) and 53.30â (5)°. Both carbonyl groups are on the same side of the aromatic ring. In the crystal, weak C-Hâ¯O hydrogen bonds link mol-ecules into layers parallel to the ac plane. The crystal packing exhibits π-π inter-actions between the aromatic rings, indicated by a short inter-centroid distance of 3.767â (3)â Å.
