Contemporary role of the plastic and reconstructive surgeon in the outcome of female peripelvic defects after oncologic extirpation
Peri-pelvic soft tissue reconstruction in the oncologic population is safe. Operative complications and hernia rates are low. In robotic surgery, thigh-based flaps are increasingly used to reconstruct the peripelvic region. Return to sexual activity is higher in patients when given dilator therapy instruction.
