This study introduces a novel testicular augmentation technique using a chin implant, achieving good symmetry and patient satisfaction. The procedure proved safe and effective, restoring sexual function without complications.

Area of Science:

  • Urology
  • Plastic Surgery
  • Body Dysmorphic Disorder Treatment

Background:

  • Testicular integrity disturbances impact masculinity, body image, and sexual function.
  • Existing testicular prosthesis surgeries since 1941 offer unsatisfactory esthetic outcomes.
  • Novel approaches are needed for testicular augmentation focusing on function and aesthetics.

Observation:

  • A case report details a 45-year-old male patient with body dysmorphic disorder.
  • A novel surgical technique involved placing a chin implant onto the testicle.
  • The patient accepted and underwent the proposed surgical treatment.

Findings:

  • The procedure resulted in excellent symmetry between the testicles.
  • No surgical complications were reported post-operatively.

  • The patient resumed a satisfactory sex life one month after surgery, with normal functional monitoring for one year.

    • Implications:

    • This unprecedented technique offers a safe and effective alternative for testicular augmentation.
    • Further clinical experience is required to establish this procedure widely.
    • This approach may improve patient outcomes in body dysmorphic disorder with testicular concerns.
