Abstract

Buried penis is a congenitally abnormal arrangement of the foreskin relative to the penile shaft, which results in a pseudomicropenis in an otherwise healthy, nonobese child. The author proposes a penoplasty technique appropriate for correction of this disorder, based on experience with 21 patients.

    Citation Excerpt :

    The extensive ventral liberation of the corpora is essential for complete penile shaft coverage.3-5 In our practice, abnormal attachments of deep tissue was not observed, then the fixation of Buck fascia to corpora was not necessary to obtain efficient, functional, and cosmetic results, preserving the corpora innervation (Table 1).13-16,20,21 Minimal surgery as a decompressive preputial incision should be an alternative option in case of symptomatic patients, those expecting spontaneous resolution, or less invasive reconstructive surgery.
