Abstract
The labial fat pad is a versatile adjunct to many reconstructions. In some cases, not only is healthy tissue required for interposition, but epithelium is needed to close the vaginal defect. We report on full-t hickness cutaneous Martius flaps from the medial labia majora used in complex vaginal repairs.
