The mid-perineal scrotal flap (MPSF) incorporates all the subcutaneous tissue between the skin and the bulbar urethra. The testicles surrounded by the tunica vaginalis are completely freed and positioned temporarily over the lower abdomen. This approach allows a complete dissection of the proximal aspect of the urethra and exposure of the surgical plane between the rectum and the posterior aspect of the prostate.
