Vulvar and vaginal oncoplastic surgery
Modern oncoplastic surgery for malignant vulvar lesions has followed a path similar to that of modern breast oncologic surgery. However, those involved in it are a rarity. The goal of oncoplastic surgery is to remove the tumor while restoring form and function.

The demolition of malignant vulvar lesions has undergone an evolution over the years, much like what has happened with the breast. Modern partial or segmental vulvectomy involves the exclusive removal of a quadrant. This aids in the radical removal and facilitates reconstruction. Total vulvectomy (complete demolition of the vulva) is followed by reconstruction aimed at restoring anatomical and functional integrity. Current reconstructive techniques are sophisticated and help reduce hospitalization times, facilitating the healing processes. Lymphadenectomy, when indicated, can utilize lymphatic vessel microsurgery to minimize the consequences of lymphatic pathway interruption. Preserving clitoral function and respecting anatomy as much as possible for oncological safety must be maximally considered, especially in young women to preserve sensitivity and in older women to prevent intensely painful conditions caused by clitoral amputation. Maximal preservation of the clitoris is achieved through careful dissection of planes and, if necessary, intraoperative submission of small tissue fragments deep around the clitoris to confirm radical separation and the unnecessary need for further demolition. If the clitoris needs to be demolished simultaneously, mobilization of the two clitoral arms can be performed, appropriately exteriorized and superficialized to preserve at least part of the organ’s sensitivity. Occasionally, it may be useful to combine reconstruction using flaps with clitoral grafting, using skin taken from the adjacent area to cover the clitoris with sufficiently thin skin to ensure sensitivity
Riduzione non chirurgica delle piccole labbra
La riduzione non chirurgica delle piccole labbra che presentai per la prima volta nel 2012 al Congresso della Società Francese di Chirurgia Plastica (Optical Non Surgical Labial Reduction) consiste nell’aumento delle grandi labbra tanto da determinare una riduzione ottica della protrusione delle piccole. La tecnica è ideale nei casi di piccole labbra modestamente ipertrofiche e grandi labbra particolarmente svuotate. Il grande vantaggio è che non vi è incisione delle piccole labbra. L’evoluzione della metodica ha portato a migliorare la tecnica tanto da arrivare all’appiattimento del piccolo labbro mediante impianto di tessuto adiposo nella base del piccolo labbro medesimo.
