Introduction: The rise in the incidence of penile ring incarceration has led to additional cases of ischemic necrosis of the penile skin. Two laterally based scrotal pedicled flaps (LSPFs), noted for their rich blood flow and skin source, resemble penile skin and are the preferred donor sites for repairing such necrosis.

Aims: This study summarizes the outcomes of 2 LSPF grafts for the treatment of penile skin necrosis.
