We prospectively collected patient demographics, operative times, intraoperative, early and late complications, pathologic results, and length of stay on all patients. The benefits, cosmetic results and satisfaction of patients were analyze in the follow up.Results Between December 2016 and July 2018, 5 patients were selected for the study: four patients underwent radical vulvectomy for squamous cell vulvar cancer and one underwent a vulvar wide excision for Paget disease, in all cases a reconstruction with KPIF technique followed the demolitive surgery. The defects were successfully covered by the key stone flap technique in all patients. There were no major intraoperative complications and early postoperative complications such as suture dehiscence occurred in only one patient, suffered a partial dehiscence of the wound. None skin flaps necrosis were observed. All patients were functionally and aesthetically satisfied in the long term.Conclusion Keystone flaps seems to be easy to design, elevate, and offer rapid fasciocutaneous closure in wide vulvo-perineal defect, with few intraoperative, early and late complications and excellent long-term results.Disclosure Nothing to disclose ER -
