7-Flap Perineal Urethrostomy
The 7-flap perineal urethrostomy uses multiple local perineal skin flaps, arranged in a seven-flap pattern, to create a wide, stable perineal stoma without tension. The design distributes wound closure lines to minimize contracture and achieve a durable, funnel-shaped meatus. It is particularly useful in perineal reconstructions requiring large amounts of local tissue mobilization.
