Hyun Ho Han1, Soo Yeon Lim1, Deuk Young Oh2.   

Abstract

Elephantiasis nostras verrucosa is a chronic lymphedema that causes enlarged and disfigured extremities. There are plenty of treatment options. However, there is no complete treatment. Preventive or symptomatic therapy is the basis for treating elephantiasis. In this article, we report a case of elephantiasis nostras verrucosa treated successfully by surgical reconstruction using a newly designed column flap.
