Abstract
A large perianal defect resulting from resection of Bowen's disease wa s reconstructed with a pair of sliding V-Y perineal flaps. The anatomi cal basis of the flaps is described, based on the inferior rectal vess els as fasciocutaneous units. Both continence and sensibility are pres erved with the procedure.
