BACKGROUND: In this study, the early and mid-term outcomes of sartorius flap reconstruction after the development of a prior groin infection were investigated.
METHODS: From January 2017 until June 2023, 44 patients from 2 centers in Italy underwent sartorius flap reconstruction after the development of a prior groin infection. Thirty-day outcome measures including major morbidity, amputation-free survival, and mortality were assessed. At 2-year follow-up, estimated outcomes of freedom from hemorrhagic complications, freedom from recurrent infection, freedom from reintervention, and amputation-free survival were analyzed using Kaplan-Meier curves.
RESULTS: In 35 cases (79.5%) a previous vascular procedure was performed, whilst in the remaining 9 cases (20.5%) the patient was an intravenous drug abuser. Thirty-day mortality and major amputation rates were 4.5%, and 2.3%, respectively. Overall 30-day wound healing rate was 56.8% (25 cases). The overall median duration of follow-up was 12 months (IQR 4-24). Complete wound healing was obtained in 36 cases (81.8%) after a median period of 1 month (IQR 1-3). The 2-year Kaplan-Meier estimates of freedom from hemorrhagic complications, freedom from recurrent infection, freedom from reintervention, and amputation-free survival were 82.1%, 70%, 71.9%, and 97.7%, respectively. Multivariate analysis confirmed the association of female sex with recurrent infection (HR 3.4, P=.05).
CONCLUSIONS: Sartorius flap reconstruction after the development of a prior groin infection following vascular procedures or intravenous drug injections yielded acceptable mid-term outcomes in terms of freedom from hemorrhagic complications, and freedom from recurrent infection. Female sex seemed to affect the rate of recurrent infection.
