Vaginal defects can either be congenital or acquired due to tumor or trauma. The reconstructions are aimed in producing a good physical and functional result with the least donor site morbidity. The pudendal thigh flap is a sensate fasciocutaneous flap based on the terminal branch of the superficial perineal artery, the continuation of the internal pudendal artery. Although various flaps have been described for vaginal reconstruction, the pudendal thigh flap offers a very attractive alternative.
