Autologous lipografting to reconstruct the labia majora following vulvectomy

Vulva cancer is a relatively rare disease; among vulvar cancers, the most common histological type is squamous cell carcinoma (SCC). Surgery, based on individual treatment needs, is the first-line therapeutic option; less radical surgery can be used in early-stage disease, plastic reconstructive techniques can be used for large defects, and radiation therapy can be employed for locoregional involvement. Reconstructive procedure options following surgery have traditionally involved the use of skin grafts and skin, fasciocutaneous, or myocutaneous flaps [1].
