    Area of Science:

    • Surgical Reconstruction
    • Anorectal Surgery
    • Plastic Surgery

    Background:

    • Anal ectropion presents reconstructive challenges.
    • Existing surgical techniques may have limitations.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To describe a modified V-Y advancement flap for anorectal reconstruction.
    • To evaluate its efficacy in treating anal ectropion.

    Main Methods:

    • A V-Y advancement flap was adapted for anorectal application.
    • The external sphincter was utilized as a pivotal point and vascular pedicle.

    Main Results:

    • The described flap technique ensures flap viability.
    • Functional restoration of the neovulva was achieved.

    Conclusions:

    • The modified V-Y advancement flap is a viable option for anorectal reconstruction in anal ectropion.
    • This technique effectively restores function to the newly created anus.
