To explore the suitable division of male genitalia subunits and the effectiveness of large-area perineum defect repair under its guidance. According to the anatomical and functional characteristics of male genitalia, the subunit division scheme was proposed: area Ⅰ, glans penis; area Ⅱ, body of penis; area Ⅲ, scrotum; area Ⅳ, scrotum. Between April 2017 and July 2019, 12 patients with large genitalia defects were treated, with an average age of 60.9 years (range, 57-66 years) and an average disease duration of 2.7 years (range, 2-5 years). The defect area involved area Ⅰ in 1 case, area Ⅱ in 7 cases, area Ⅲ in 5 cases, and area Ⅳ in 8 cases; the size of area ranged from 6 cm×4 cm to 23 cm×16 cm. The causes of defect included 3 cases of trauma, 6 cases of Paget disease, 2 cases of squamous cell carcinoma, 1 case of spindle cell tumor. According to the design of the corresponding repair scheme, the main repair methods were to rotate and advance the skin flap and pedicled skin flap in the same area. When the def
