Iatrogenic trapped penis in adults: new, simple 2-stage repair.

2010 
Purpose: We present a new, 2-stage functional and cosmetic reconstruction of concealed penis in adults with short-term subjective outcomes.Materials and Methods: Patients with excess penile skin removal, shaft tissue scarring and penile retraction with poor functional and cosmetic results underwent 2-stage repair. At stage 1 after a coronal incision and penile degloving an intrascrotal tunnel was formed and the penis was transposed through the scrotum. Three or 4 zero or 2-zero nonresorbable sutures were applied ventral to the penis, crossing through the entire scrotum to ensure complete scrotal skin adhesion to the penis (penile scrotalization). At stage 2 after 6 to 12 weeks the scrotal skin at the penile base was incised bilaterally to separate the skin around the penis from the remaining scrotal skin (penile descrotalization). Evaluation was scheduled 3, 6 and 9 months postoperatively, and annually thereafter.Results: Ten men with concealed penis underwent this 2-stage penile repair, including 8 who w...
