Abstract
Purpose:
We report a new surgical technique for the correction of buried penis.
Materials And Methods:
The study comprised 10 boys with buried penis. The technique consisted of resection of abnormal dartos attachments, unfurling of the prepuce and correction of the deficient shaft skin by reapproximation of the preputial skin flaps in a defined way to obtain sufficient penile skin coverage.
Results:
Outcome was excellent in 6 cases, good in 3 and unsatisfactory in 1.
Conclusions:
Perfect cosmetic results were obtained and no serious complications developed.
