BACKGROUND: Buttock pressure injuries can be difficult to treat. There are many choices of flaps to reconstruct these wounds, but few are large, technically simple, and easily recycled.
AIM AND OBJECTIVE: We are presenting our experience on surgical reconstruction of buttock pressure injuries using large whole-buttock fasciocutaneous flaps that are easily designed for ulcers regardless of location and size and are easily recycled for treatment of recurrences.
MATERIAL AND METHODS: We conducted a retrospective review of all patients who received reconstruction with fasciocutaneous rotational flaps for buttock region pressure injuries from January 2013 to December 2018. The key steps of this one-size-fits-all flap include elevation of a large, oversized flap to achieve tension-free closure, avoiding fascial incisions over bony prominences, placing the V-Y type closure wound in the posteromedial thigh, and the use of closed incisional negative wound therapy postoperatively.
RESULTS: Fifty patients underwent 54 flaps reconstruction for coverage of stage 4 gluteal pressure injuries between January 2013 and December 2018. Seventy-four percent healed without the need for further operation. The average size of the defect was 90 cm2 (maximum = 300 cm2). The average follow-up period was 31 months. Four of the 54 flaps were "recycled" flaps, 3 were performed for the coverage of recurrent ulcers and 1 flap was performed for treatment of a postoperative wound dehiscence.
CONCLUSIONS: We recommend this simple, one-size-fits-all approach, whole-buttock fasciocutaneous flap when surgically treating gluteal pressure injuries for selected patients.
