Full-Thickness Skin Graft Anoplasty

Abstract: We describe a novel technique to treat anal stenosis by reconstructing the anal canal by the use of a full-thickness skin graft from the abdominal wall. This treatment was successfully applied in our institution and showed positive results.

“…Various surgical techniques for the treatment of anal stenosis have been described in the literature, including split‐thickness skin graft (STSG) or local skin flap. However, there are difficulties with STSG, including infection, long‐term confinement in the prone position to immobilize the skin graft and graft contracture resulting in anal stenosis again. However, flap reconstruction can result in problems, including suture line contracture, disturbance of walking due to loss of the natal cleft and skin faecal soiling due to hypoaesthesia of the flap.…”
